The student/teacher relationships are excellent. Those relationships in addition to DLI course offerings really push the kids beyond traditional schooling and prescribed AP curriculum. The students work hard bot in pursuit of their own passions but to honor the relationship they have with their teachers.

Wooster School is a great environment. The academics are incredible, however, the sports and arts departments could use some work.

At Wooster the teachers are willing to help their students succeed, and make sure to challenge them. Classes focus more on discussions and participation than tests since Wooster strives to see its students to become well-rounded people who can think for themselves. There is a real sense of community, but sports and the arts could be better. Overall I'd say I've had a great experience here.

The teachers also bu...

It is the only language taught at wooster, and I lost all fluency when I came in my sophomore year. The arts program, on all fronts, has a lack of funding. The music department bare...
