Parent Feedback
The Wawona School gave my child the opportunity to thrive and grow, both as a student and as a person. By nurturing her unique interests and gifts with its unique environment and philosophy, the Wawona School's incredible resources for both academics and personal growth helped my daughter reach her fullest potential. The school compliments our family in values and character, making sure each student is developing as a responsible and conscientious citizen of their community and world. Both her mind and heart have been fed here in this place of inclusive and cooperative emphasis. It has been beautiful to see her blossom in the rich soil of this school family; the phenomenal teaching, support and friendships have been such a blessing in our lives, for our student and our whole family. I can't say enough about this amazing school!" |
The unique learning opportunities my children have here can't be found anywhere else." |
My children have thrived in this one-of-a-kind school. The unique opportunities they have are amazing and I can't imagine them attending any other school. Living and learning in Yosemite, my kids have had experiences few other schools can offer. Their interests, particularly in the natural sciences and art, are a direct result of the amazing environment they are in. Because of the non-traditional approach to teaching, they are thriving and excelling in basic academics as a result of hands-on and practical application." |
"Our kids have an amazing place to learn. The unique learning opportunities have helped them to thrive and grow." |
Living in the beautiful Sierra Nevadas, we wanted our children to take advantage of the resources and opportunities unique to our area. Wawona Charter has been a wonderful way for our kids to learn and grow in a family environment focused on individual needs and interests, while challenging them to reach beyond themselves and into the world. We adore the community service projects, field studies, physical education, cooking courses, Spanish instruction, etiquette classes, online supplemental material, and small class sizes. More than anything, though, I trust the teachers and staff to care for my kids as their own. I am thankful every day that this is place we chose for our sons to grow and flourish, because they truly are thriving here!"
