The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. 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 would like to see improvements with commutations with the students. Administration needs to reach out and explain more often what's going on to students and have more resources available for them. It's difficult to feel prepared for the future when you aren't even prepared for tomorrow.

Wakulla has amazing teachers that truly care about not only your education but also you as a person. The only reason it doesn't get 5 stars from me is because of the administration. While it's not all of them, a few members show clear favoritism of students and complete disrespect. Other than that, Wakulla High School is a good school.

If more people had experienced other schools in areas like south Florida they would have rated it much higher. This is one school that still provides good basic life foundations while it stays up to date on their curriculum. A +++ in my book
