walla walla crime and schools? (housing, high schools, art)

[karelise]

My family and I are considering a move to Walla Walla and are curious about the public schools there. Does anyone have opinions or experiences about the public school sysem there? Also, City Data has a high number of rapes listed throughout the past several years in Walla Walla. Any thoughts on the amount of violent crime in Walla Walla?

Thank you.

ok well here it goes lol ive livd in walla walla for 25 years in feb which is all my life. i graduated in 2000 and then the schools were ok but sience then i have a 5 yearold daughter and many cousins in the school system and i believe it is great. my 5 year old daughter comes home and tells me they teach her spanish. "which is a good thing" so i believe the schools are great i recomend sharpstein, berny, edison, and green park for eleamentry schools stay away from blue ridge!! for middle schools i recomend pinoeer middle school also knowen as pms lol stay away from garrision. and only 2 high schools here 1 is public which is a good high school and the oather 1 is a catholic privite high school that u have to pay for but is also middle school to. as far as the rapes and crime here well lets just say before i went to the military i was a party boy fresh out of high school lol most of any crime that happens here is due to a cirtian crowed " the meth crowed" most of the crime is one meth head on another so as far as feeling safe here its 100% safe u can take a walk down town on a weekend summer night and their are lots of people old young and young adulds just enjoying the fresh air. Uf u move to walla walla i promise u will have nothing to worrie about its a great family oreinted/ retirement town. any other questions pleas ask. I hope i helped.

Considering a move to Walla Walla and I have not been there in decades. I would appreciate knowing anything- culture- schools- housing- the insided scoop. It looks pretty in the photos- far differnt from what I remember which is mostly the smell of onions.
