Horrible horrible horrible. Disgusting and overpriced. Narcissist head of school Matt Byrnes. Mold in the classrooms. Do not send your kids here if you love and care for them.

Wooster School had an amazing impact on my children. They are thriving in life because of being a student here. They are challenged yet supported. They have opportunity to explore their various interests in academics, athletics, and the arts. The best decision our family made was to have our children attend this school. I encourage everyone I know to check it out...go visit to see it for yourself.

The student/teacher relationships are excellent. Those relationships in addition to DLI course offerings really push the kids beyond traditional schooling and prescribed AP curriculum. The students work hard bot in pursuit of their own passions but to honor the relationship they have with their teachers.

The teachers also bu...

It is the only language taught at wooster, and I lost all fluency when I came in my sophomore year. The arts program, on all fronts, has a lack of funding. The music department bare...
