Young Womens Leadership Charter High School Reviews


Posted By: student Quality Score: 5 2006-09-14 “This is my 3rd year at young women's and it isnt as bad as i thought it would be. I am a sophmore here and in my opinion all of the teachers dont only care about our academics but also our personal lives. If we have a problem they really get to the root of everything. We also have a lot of activities here such as yearbook, tennis, softball, basketball, etc. The parents here are also really good with staying involved in what there children do. We have parent conference nights which are interesting and fun. So if you ask me Young Womens is a really good school! -Ashley Sharp” Posted By: parent Quality Score: 2 2006-08-14 “After 2 years at YWLCS, I had to transfer my daughter. There were some very fabulous teachers but things are inconsistent. The turn around of teachers each year should be an indication that something is wrong, especially when good staff leave. The stories my daughter came home with about lack of discipline made me rethink her attendance there.” Posted By: parent Quality Score: 5 2006-06-21 “Both of my daughters attend YWLCS, I am pleased to say that this is a good environment for girls to excel in. I believe it prepares the girls well for performing academically at any university. The teachers are motivated to help each child succeed in life and academics and it shows. Even though the school does not have a gymnasium, they offer plenty of other activities to compensate for not having a gym. Two thumbs up.” Posted By: student Quality Score: 4 2004-11-17 “Hello. I've been going to YWLCS for two years now. I really like the curriculum. The school is very diverse. I like attending this school. We are taught to be leaders, not followers. The school excels in technology, math, and science. The extracurricular activities are many. You can choose anything from yearbook to kumba lynx! They prepare you not only for college, but life. I highly recommend this school for any girl you know.” Posted By: parent Quality Score: 5 2003-08-31 “YWLCS is a great school! It's a very diverse, I believe it's great for my daughter because diversity is what makes the world go around. The teachers are genuinely concerned for their students by going above & beyond their call of duty to assure the students get a great education. I'd recommend this school to anyone who has a daughter.”
