The school lacks funding, but the teachers are helpful and care about the well-being of their students.

I have really enjoyed my experience and will definitely be sad to close this journey in my life. I built a lot of connections with the staff and had great continuous support all 4 years. I feel prepared for college beside of the courses I was able to participate in and learned a lot. I have also enjoyed and benefited from many of the clubs at the school. District wise, I wish there was more opportunities for outside events, like field trips. Overall, have had a nice time.

My experiences at Western Alamance High School have been quite satisfactory. I found the curriculum informative, decisive, yet simple and effective in its teaching. I would give it an almost perfect 4 out of 5 while i do believe it was quite effective there was still some issues so not quite perfect.

They are taught to disobey their parents while ppl in the front office, named Crystal, said her last name one of the three, but she wasn’t telling me. Which shows they are hiding behind their actions. It’s very...

10 years ago - a very good school. Parents would relocate to western Alamance County so their children could attend WAHS. Sadly, over the past 5 years or so, the school has lost its way.
