Great experience with my child at this school while on an IEP. Staff was dedicated to finding resources to invest academic success. I really like the fact that the staff is flexible. Highly recommended.

I really hate this school three of my kids attended here. As of now only two attend currently. Goodwin is literally a mess ok. As soon as your kid make one mistake here The whole school staff labels your kid. They think all black kids needs to be on medicine. To be honest I would never recommend this school at all!

We have recently moved to the Charleston area and this was not a pick of schools for my child but he had to go there.. I can't really put the school down but I don't like it for my child..met with teacher to discuss child behavior bc I know he talks a lot and I don't send him to school for that but I didn't like one question teacher asked, is he on medicine? Do they think all black children need to be on medicine..he is a typical child..It don't matter me having to transport him to school but I will be doing a transfer next year to a more diversed school.

W.B. Goodwin is a title 1 school. The good part about this designation is that the school is eligible for all kinds of interventions. Free reading and math tutoring are available. There are also a number of paraprofessionals on staff. There is a sizable Spanish speaking community in the area and ESL services are available. The school is very well administered. The principal is visible on a daily basis and is often seen in the halls. The staff is cohesive with a common vision. The students are well-behaved, enthusiastic, and eager to learn. I would be well satisfied if my children attended this school. Thank you.
