I swear to you, they haven't change a thing in the boy's locker room - it has the same orange/yellow lockers. It still smell the same like it was in the 80s...Yes, that is disturbing. * The facility is very clean. * The pool is warm and bright. I wish they have more swim meets here for the Barracuda, but they don't. They favor Olsen Middle School because it has more lanes. * My kids said the showers have hot water here...Hence they make me wait for them while they take their long showers after practice...Yes, I should dis-own them for this, but...I save a few pennies while they use the school's water vs mine. Never recall my boy like taking 20-30 minutes showers... I can't comment anything else in the facility except I went there back in the 80s...I think I turn out pretty well...Don't answer that.

My kid started at Watershed last year after many tries at other schools ,and for the first time in a long time, he's looking forward to going back for his senior year. The school is very student-centered, and incredibly kind, welcoming and feels safe ( I qualify that because how safe is any school, really, these days?). They do lots of less than typical projects with the kids, including travel to an organic farm with whom they have an outstanding relationship, and very interestingJ-term projects. Very great senior project (you work on it all year and present to the school and community) as well as a senior trip that the kids plan themselves and fundraise for, so everyone can go. They make a big deal out of the "watershed "moment of transition from senior to out in the world. So, some balance: the school is very small, so less variety. Only one language taught, fewer options than a big school. A small school is vulnerable to just a few kids skewing the test scores, but nevertheless this doesn't seem to be a test-score based acadmic powerhouse. But if you want your kid to develop a life-long love of learning, as opposed to competing over monster SAT's, give it a look.
