This school has its flaws but so does every other school it's a good school. if you want to get somewhere in life go to this place . Instead of filling your kids with headaches it teaches them to think out of the box and have an open mind. Although it was difficult, going into highschool. I had relearn how study and focus on the task at hand. They need to improve the junior high section. I walked into highschool having forgot how to properly deal with hard situations and decisions. This lead to the loss of friends and a complete train wreck for the entirety of grade 10. However it does not mean I dislike the school. I did not appreciate being a lab rat for the district. It was fun but lead to negative consequences.

I have been attending this school for three years and, in all honesty, I fail to see how half of the negative traits several people have applied are valid, in the sense that they lack a thorough explanation. <3

I’ve had a child go through jr high here and one currently in elementary (the youngest being special needs). Both have been hugely successful. Amazing atmosphere that encourages learning in different formats that adapts to all learning types. The staff are warm, welcoming and only want the best for all the students. We couldn’t be happier!

This school made me feel like garbage, they don’t know how to teach. Don’t send your kids here.

My daughter has attended WLC for Grades 5, 6, and now, 3 quarters of Grade 7. I have already spoken to other schools and decided on another one. I had every intention of pulling her for Grade 8, but have decided, the sooner the better. This week in fact. The only fantastic being to come from this experience for both my daughter and us as parents, was her Grade 6 teacher last year. I am not going to name names, however this man is an incredible teacher, and so deserves the credit for going above and beyond, and allowing my daughter to explore what really makes her happy, and not stifle her in anyway, and that's writing. He saw her potential, and really pushed her to keep doing what she was, at this age, phenomenally well at. It was never a part of the strict WLC "curriculum" if you can even call it that. Keeping all students at the same level, and not allowing them to reach any further, or the poor excuse for a report card with no clear indicator of where your child's strengths and weaknesses really are, is going to be damaging to them in the long run. These Junior High students need to learn what an exam is, what homework is, what good pressure feels like, what deadlines are, and more importantly learn how to study for said finals and tests. These poor teens are going to walk into High School and have no idea what they are doing, regardless of your speeches and orientation meetings. This is setting them up for an enormous amount of anxiety, panic and disappointment when they hit High School and Post Secondary Education. Not preparing them for the "real world" and certainly not preparing them for what High School Education is really like. These kids have no incentives to try harder, to pull up their socks and do better if they are not working to their full potential in any subject. My daughter refers to it as "floating through" and "not having to try" because regardless they know come February, when registration forms are handed out..they have already been accepted into the next Grade. Without percentages, and a breakdown in the core subjects, how are we as parents, and them as students suppose to VISUALLY see improvement or decline even? (something to watch out for, should a child be dealing with personal issues) My daughter who is a teenager said this "Yeah, it would be great to stay at WLC, with friends and be lazy and just coast through, but I know that isn't the right choice to prepare me for my future, so transfer me" Pretty bad when a Grade 7 understands the consequences this school could cause for her future. Sorry, rant over.

I go to this school currently, I have been here for grade 5, 6, 7 and now 8. I love this school and I think that it is getting unnecessary hate. People need to understand that this is a project based school, we do things differently. The way we learn we are actually learning, not just memorizing. We understand what we are learning and we do tests differently than other schools. We do real world work everyday and we still learn the curriculum.

Send your kid here if you want them to turn into a mushroom

DO NOT SEND YOUR KIDS TO THIS SCHOOL!!! The administration simply loves bullying the students! We have had NUMEROUS complaints from the kids about being bullied and intimidated by the staff and administration! Guilty by association seems the be the way they do things. Once had a teacher had the nerve to comment that one of my boys was rude to her "BECAUSE SHE IS A WOMAN"!!! They follow an extremely liberal curriculum, and if the kids even challenge a teacher, they get sent home. I am 100% fed up with the kids being bullied and singled out, especially by the administration!!

This place is awesome because they have a different type of teaching. You only get homework if you don’t complete something and they don’t call tests, tests because the don’t want too stress us. People say it’s trash and get me out of here, you may as well say that too every school because every school is the same. There all schools and I’ve been here from grade 1 and I’m in grade 5. It’s great here, the teachers are kind, caring and there only strict if you treat them like there a toy. You should go here because it’s from kindergarten to grade 9 so you could stay there for basically all your school years. They have buses that go everywhere around South Ridge and there’s a bus that goes to Desert Blume. So there’s no excuse to not come here and even if you have to move from that school, it’s ok. You just have to do homework for the rest of your life. Hopefully you come here too!

Wonderful, modern school with outstanding educators.

Riley Friesen

It is an amazing school with amazing teachers,[Mr. Longmore, Mrs. Smith, Mr. McQuat and we STILL DO TESTS{Mind Blown} but they are called YOK's . we get homework if we don't get stuff done. I don't know why there is so many negative comments, this school isn't bad, it is an amazing experience!!!!!!!!

Fantastic school!

Teachers don’t know how to teach, the EA’s pick on students for no reason, they don’t prepare you for high school in any way, and it was the worst school experience I’ve ever had. DO NOT send your kids here, they will fail high school and not know how to do anything. P.S. don’t trust mrs. marshan, she will send you to the office for next to nothing, she doesn’t know how to help the kids she is supposed to, and she will try her hardest to make you hate her and the school.

Great School with a Project-based Learning Environment My sons have attended WLC since grade 5 and are currently in grade 7. The teachers work together in all grades to ensure the classes are getting similar experiences. Most of the subjects are combined into several areas at once so that a project might look like a real-world scenario with aspects such as math, science and language arts all put together at the same time. In the end, students are working collaboratively much like they will do once they are done school. There is no real homework, which can be a bit of a shock for parents, but that doesn't mean there aren't extra assignments like reading(my sons have been challenged to read 40 books throughout the year, for example). The school is new, administration is sticking to their beliefs regarding marking and report cards(there are no percentages for anything, but a report card that describe if your child is meeting the curriculum). I have found the teachers are open and will discuss what is going on quite freely. Finally, the school is just starting to find its' way as this is the first year the school is going to grade 9. In speaking with staff, they are working with the local high schools as well to ensure a good transition from grade 9 to grade 10. All I can say is if you are unsure, to make sure you try to speak with staff from WLC before making a decision.

Ok so this school

Horrible experience for my only child and I... in kindergarten already being bullied sworn at and pushed ... administration did absolutely nothing about it all year long ... instead chose to make me feel like an idiot for being upset about the lack of help ... the specific little girl doing the bullying had no consequences ... I chose to pull my daughter ... never been happier
