"It's an ok school, if you're in an academy. THe academies tend to have a higher standard than the General Population. I'm in the Humanities Honors program. This school is great over all. I wish that they enforced the no tolerance for bullying rule. We do have a little bullying, and the dean or teachers aren't patrolling the grounds. The uniform is getting stricter, because we have a new dean. The new dean isn't as friendly as the old one, and they have different personalities. Stay with your friends and you'll be fine though. The Academies are really close. We all became like a family. We have our arguments, and competitions, but we all know each other really well. It can get a little clique, but we usually are very open. Also, being an honor student or in IHP, doesn't make you a nerd. It just means that you're smart and are proud of it. Our music program is amazing, and so is our Musical. This year it's fiddler on the roof, and I'm in the chorus. For music elective we have instrumental and vocal. If you're into music this is a great school for you. Overall, it's a great school and I hope that you apply here for an Academy!"

"note: Anyone commenting on the scrubs thing is receiving false information. If anyone calls you a scrub it is most likely a joke, and I've never heard of anyone who took this seriously. And bullying isn't really a problem, however of course you will have a few students who get into fights, and this isn't always handled very effectively. I LOVE THIS SCHOOL! I am an eighth grader in the IHP, and I absolutely love Walter Reed. We are exposed to so many different types of people and literature, history, languages, sciences beyond what normal eight graders do (I am in AP Physics). We have a fantastic music program with choir, barbershop, winds, strings, jazz band, and many more. The P.E. area of this school leaves much to be desired though, the teachers aren't exactly in shape, and rules are very loose. Everything else is wonderful though, and I will be very sad when my time at Walter Reed must come to an end. GO WOLVES!!! <3"

"My son just graduated from Reed and he's sad that his days there have come to an end. He was in the IHP program and his experience was nothing less than rewarding. The teachers, staff, volunteer parents and principal are all involved in this wonderful community. I found the student body respectful to adults as well as to each other on the whole."
