School Reviews
| 5 I justed started at WKMS. It's WAY better then my other school. We have dances, and we get to go to florida. All the teachers are helpful and nice.
They all are kinds of Extracurricluar activities, like DI, Stock Market, and Debate Clubs. I love the sports we do in Gym.
Almost all the parents know what is going on, since there is a school newspaper once a weeek. - Posted by Student/Alumni - atwin |
