Watauga High School is a great high school in Watauga County. It has high-quality facilities, a wide variety of classes offered, and plenty of sport and club extracurriculars. Administration is struggling a little right now, and the counselors are not the best at preparing students for college. Overall a high quality high school.

Administration is horrible. They only care about minorities and don't give a crap about white people.

At Watauga, the student population is much more respectful and the stud...

Watauga High School is not a good place for gifted kids. I am a former student who switched schools and I always felt frustrated by the simplicity of academics at WHS. Prerequisites would have kept me out of AP classes until I was in 11th grade, far after I started needing placement at that level. T...
