Peace builders’ is a nationally acclaimed program that teaches the values of nonviolence, conflict resolution and creative relationship-building; crucial qualities for today’s young people.

Welcome Parental Involvement: Parents volunteer in educational, recreational and cultural activities, helping to build the warm atmosphere that is descriptive of WALA. Small class sizes and strong teacher contact.
