#SISTERHOOD
"My Experience was wonderful what I liked most about my high school was the sisterhood and being able to count on your sister."
GIANT WAE FAMILY
"When I transferred to that school in my freshmen year, I thought that it was going to be a difficult year. I love my school. They have unique activities that I've never done in other schools. The teachers teach really well and they treat us really good. The students love to work together. If it wasn't for one of my teachers, I wouldn't have made it to where I am right now. We all work together as a giant family."
BUILDING YOUNG LEADERS
"It was one of the best decisions sending my daughter in this school... this school developed not only the academic skills of my daughter but also improved her non academic aspects.If you want to have a more personalized attention to your daughter in a public school but with private school service, I encourage you to send your daughter to WAE."
WAE IS LIFE CHANGING
"WAE has completely changed my life. For the mere fact that I was challenged to push myself constantly... I left WAE and went on to attend the prestigious Howard University in which I will be graduating with a B.S. in Political Science this upcoming May. WAE was the catalyst for me. They promote such love and care between the girls and just within ourselves. They always support you, in whatever you do. All while guiding you to the top.
Why WAE?
