We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

I attended WCHS and honestly wouldn't have gone anywhere else. I spent most of my time in the band room with Mr. Hale and continued to come back and work with students. There has only been one teacher that hasn't helped me learn and grow. Attending this school has given me the drive to be the best I can be regardless of circumstance.

Wolfe County High School has great academics, teachers, safety, and sports. They focus on academics and sports. They always push for you to push yourself and make the most of your life. The diversity at the school is close to none with about 98% white. The school does not have much money so there is almost nothing besides the gym, cafeteria, and track.

I like that Wolfe County High School is small and all the teachers seem to care about their students! If I could change anything it would be that that get more resources and better lunch.
