Beyond WHMS

On Friday, June 15, 2012, we celebrated our 10th graduating class and had 20 graduates. Seventeen of the 20 students started in Montessori in their Primary years – wow! Our pattern of roughly half our graduates attending their local public high school and the other half attending local independent schools of their choice continues. This year we have students enrolling at the following public high schools:

 Albany High School (2)

Bethlehem High School (1)

Columbia High School (2)

Shaker High School (3)

Tech Valley High School (2 - from Guilderland and Troy) 

We have students enrolling at the following independent high schools:

 Albany Academies (2)

Catholic Central High School (1)

Christian Brothers Academy (2)

Darrow School (2)

Emma Willard School (1) (Capital District Scholar)

Grace Christian Academy, Bennington, Vermont (1)

Saratoga Springs Waldorf School (1)

WHMS alum Ben Ofori-Okai was the keynote speaker at Moving Up and Graduation.

“Our child flourished at Woodland Hill, building both the academic and social skills she needs to be a life long learner. She has great problem solving skills, is a fountain of knowledge on a wide variety of topics and is a kind, thoughtful friend. We couldn’t have picked a better start or school for our child. Thank you.”
