Wahlert was and will always have an amazing community. The community and the faith there is what holds it together.

Some of the best parts of my experience at Wahlert are the different people that I am able to meet while there. There are some awesome teachers and peers, and I think that they all make the community very special. However, the facilities have been lacking and Wahlert is starting to lose resources as the school community pours money into projects that aren't as deserving as giving Wahlert more space or helping Wahlert gain more education opportunities.

The best part about Wahlert is being able to opening express my faith in a school setting. There is a high academic standard that challenges students and prepares them for the future. One thing I would like to see change is more involvement in the community and work life. Allowing kids to step in the real world and experience their strengths and how they want to impact the world.

A pretty average school. Sometimes the students can be disrespectful, though, which is kind of unfortunate.
