(5 / 5) Flag as inappropriate - W.D. Williams is a great school for anyone that wants to be guarenteed that their kids have a good education. I can prove that very easily! Once almost every day there is a group of teachers that come to your classroom and have SMILE class with a group of students! SMILE is where we practice reading or writing and there is also 4 speacials classes that we go to every day. Music art and p.e and library (media center) where your child can read and check out books!!!! so register your child today!!!!!!!!!! : )
