“A Wonderful Education”

unlock
"> My husband and I are very pleased with the education our children received at W.I.S. They are now young adults with excellent manners and have remained interested in the areas that the wonderful teachers introduced to them. From early on we saw a marked difference between our children and their friends, particularly their mature approach to thinking rather than simply waiting to be told.It really does deserve a visit as the atmosphere is very welcoming and the teachers exceptional.
