Waller Mill Elementary School

As a former part-time employee there I experienced nothing but appreciation and encouragement from the entire staff. When I had to leave for personal reasons, the staff gave me a picture of one of our assemblies. It's now hanging in my office where I fondly (and frequently) reflect on my time with the students and staff. I go back for visits as often as I am able. Very professional and friendly -- what a great combination!

LOVE this school. We moved from Virginia Beach to Williamsburg when my son was entering 1st grade. He started off reading FAR below grade level (thanks VB for completely missing that fact and never letting us know!) and by the end of 1st grade was caught up. Now, halfway through 2nd grade he's reading at a 3rd grade level and continuing to improve. This is all thanks to his 1st grade teacher catching the issue and getting him the extra help he needed. We worked hard for it, don't get me wrong, extra help, tutoring, practice, practice, practice - my son put in SO much effort on his part as well. BUT I can't help but to think of where we'd be without Waller Mill. The minute we walked in for a tour it was apparent that this was exactly where we were meant to be. The teachers and administration are amazing. They love these kids and they teach kindness and empathy. They foster creativity and make learning fun. My son looks forward to going to school each day, he's disappointed about a SNOW DAY even. I've said it over and over, I couldn't pay to send my son to a better private school. The quality of education not only academically but socially and emotionally at Waller Mill is brilliant. We LOVE Waller Mill, my only grievance is we didn't move here before kindergarten!

I am in LOVE with this school. My youngest has attended for the past 3 years - next year will be her final year in 5th grade and we will miss it so much. The teachers, staff and principal are all wonderfully loving and caring to all of the students - and you can feel it as soon as you step inside the school. My daughter is very creative and this school encourages creativity and uniqueness. I cant say enough about how great I think this school is.

We loved this school. Even if you never stepped in to school you knew what your child was studying that week, you knew what they will study next week, you even knew the test days, early dismissals....We miss this school so much. Unfortunately we had to move to Loudoun county and are so fustrated with our new school. Thank you for challanging our kids with math, art and the history of Williamsburg, and the great reading program. We miss you all!
