Unsolicited Comments from WEB schools:
"I wanted to give you a HUGE thank you for creating such a great program. Our WEB kicked off with a great orientation day just before school began. Our WEB leaders are so psyched about hanging with the younger students!"
-Alana Lackey, Counselor, Preston Junior High School, Fort Collins, Colorado
"Each event that we hold in celebration of the WEB Leaders and WEBBIES confirms for me the principles of this effective program and its teaching of leadership. Our school is truly a place Where Everybody feels like they Belong!"
- Katy Boak, Assistant Principal, Mountainside Middle School, Scottsdale, AZ

"Through our WEB program, eighth graders with a variety of backgrounds are taught leadership skills and given several opportunities throughout the school year to use them while helping other students. WEB leaders’ positive, ‘total support’ attitudes have helped make it so that all our students welcome our 6th graders!"
"I thought this was the best training I have ever been to; I have taught school for 23 years, 20 of them as a 6th grade teacher. I am so excited to see such a positive, encouraging program for them as well as for the 8th graders. I know it will be successful!"
-Tammy Allan, Lecanto Middle School, Lecanto, Florida
"This training is the impetus for school-wide culture change."
-Phil Angel, Hanford Middle School, Hanford, California
"The WEB Coordinators, the WEB Leaders and the WEB program are having a tremendous effect on the climate of our building--the program is empowering kids and teaching them how to take charge of their lives and their world-they are helping develop the spirit that Northdale is a safe and caring place for kids."
-John Ploeger, AP-Discipline, Northdale Middle School, Northdale, MN
"We had been so apprehensive for our adopted daughter to start middle school with her limited English skills along with all of the other concerns one has for this big change. But we could hardly wait to talk to other parents after WEB Orientation about the experience! Two parents in particular had eventually planned to send their 6th graders to another school; one child was still on a waitlist at another school and the other was set to go to a nearby private school. Both were so impressed by how well their children adjusted to middle school they have decided to have their kids stay at Willow Glen. We felt the entire program was so well coordinated, well run and it provided the perfect embrace for our kids."
