"Mixed feelings about my experience"

I have mixed feelings about my time at Waverley School. On the one hand, I appreciated the emphasis on 'learning through diversity' and the various programs available for my child. However, I felt that the communication with parents could be improved at times. Overall, it was a good experience, but not without its challenges. - Sarah K.
