GreatSchools Rating
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.

WCHS was still a very new school when I attended there. I felt that the school was incredibly accepting and understanding of student struggles. Any complaints I would have, such as frequent staff changes, can be forgiven because I know they are working incredibly hard to establish an excellent institution with whatever tools they have.

It is a close-knit school for sure, the school makes sure to take care of their students in more than enough different ways

I have gone to school at Water Canyon for the past 5 years and it is the best school I've attended. The teachers are extremely invested in the students and making sure they get as many opportunities as other schools. It is a smaller school and was only recently opened but the effort put into the sports and extracurricular facilities is amazing. The atmosphere and school pride grows every year.
