SALT VISIT REPORT…
[...]   The SALT report commended the school in several areas including the exceptional commitment of its faculty, staff and administration, the use of clear and consistent behavioral standards for students, and its high test scores in mathematics, fueled by a school-wide emphasis on numeracy.  The report identified fluent and expressive reading, as well as, strong comprehension as key strengths of WKES students.[...]
    The findings of the SALT team will be the focus of the West Kingston School Improvement Plan for next year.
