    "We have been enrolled since 1998. My kids are happy, safe, and learning. We send our children there to get an education and they are getting that!"

    "My daughter has attended Wider Horizons for the past two years. We couldn't be happier with the progress she has made. We love how this school encourages her to do better and achieve more (public school had her wait until everybody caught up). This school is not for everyone though. If you are looking to make your child a sports star or homecoming queen you need to look elsewhere. This school's focus is strictly on education. We don't mind, as we provide our daughter with extracurricular activities and allow the school to do what we pay them to do."

    "I had 3 children that attended Wider Horizons from 2004 through 2009. All 3 are straight A students. We could not get a report card for the oldest child (High School Merit Scholar). We could not get an accurate transcript in 5 attempts (incorrect classes listed, incorrect FDOE class codes, and incorrect grades). The owner and his wife run the school. There is no board to escalate issues to. Owner refuses to allow teachers to write recommendations for students. Owner will not administer gifted tests provided by the county. I attempted to rectify the issues, but was told we were unreasonable. We left."

    "WHS has it's good and bad points. The school is small and safe and the teachers in the lower grades (PK-2) are wonderful. Unfortunately, that's where it stops. The Montessori principles are not taught after the 2nd grade and some of the teachers need to be re-evaluated on the way they teach and not be so arrogant. There also is a lack of parent involvement and parent -teacher communication. If you are looking for a great Montessori school I would try Countryside Montessori School in Pasco County."

    "Our children attended WHS for 3 years. Despite the Maglios politics and not wanting to change the school-even if it would make things better for the students and boost teacher morale-I believed they had gotten a great education. I was wrong, and unfortunately my children are behind academically when they transfered to their new schools. There are some great teachers there, but some of the teachers are abusive to the students and need to be let go. My children are now on the right track and have plans of attending an Ivy-league university instead of the local community college which many of the WHS students end up attending."
