Good learning experience with knowledgeable teachers who want you to succeed. Many optional electives for whatever one wants to go into such as intro into nursing you can get college credits for that can help with your program in college.

My experience has been pretty great. This school has allowed me to make many friends that I would never have talked to without it. Going here has shaped me into the person I am today, and I am grateful. I would probably improve a little on the safety and how they run things throughout the school.

I love the hometown feel of a small county school and that is what you get at webster. Everyone cares and knows your story. They make sure each child has the chance to succeed and will do whatever it takes.

Teachers engage with students to meet learning needs. Quality education in a safe atmosphere. Many opportunities for students to excel in academic endeavors, as well as sports and leadership. Teachers handle situations with professionalism and expect students to be respectful.

I would rate it a 1 out of 10. There's a high amount of bullying, and lack of flexibility for learning.
