School Reviews
5   11/10/2023
Watson provided my child with a holistic education. It maximized my children's potential by providing them opportunities to explore their own learning styles according to their unique personalities as second language learners. My children always scored well and continued to grow until they were identified as GT because they were provided the opportunities to learn to the best of their abilities through their various programs and a mixture of hands-on and digital tools that made them learn many different things in many different ways. The teachers had different unique ways that allowed the students to experience the realities in life where they have to be working with different personalities while maintaining their own unique ways with resilience. The number of field trips they had in Watson was always more than what other students could get from other schools ( not less than 5 field trips per year ). I love this school and I could not be more thankful.
