I am a student in Weddington Middle and overall I am very happy that we settled on this school. I have many friends and all the teachers are very kind, helpful and experienced. Over all there is a very good atmosphere to learn and it gives private school vibes. If you are new to the Charlotte area/South Charlotte this is a must recommend area that feels a bit like the Northeast. All in all, a good environment to grow up.
