About Us
Wentworth greets a student population of approximately 700 students in grades 3-5 annually, along with over 100 staff members. Students will encounter an expanded set of social, emotional and academic connections compared to their primary years. Each child will move toward independence of thought while acquiring a more defined set of academic skills.
