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.

Place is nice and clean, though the boys' locker room stinks like crazy of coffee and sweat (thanks Jack) and the water system in the bathrooms could be better. Need a bit more locker space too and less crowded halls. Buses aren't great too as we have to sprint to get a decent seat. Please upgrade bus 15 and bus 19, both to Hollywood (?) and to Azalea!!!

I am a WWMS graduate. WWMS prepared me for Munster High School which prepared me for a full ride to Purdue University!

We have an awesome staff that works with students as well as each other to make our school great. There is a positive atmosphere around the school and a lot of involvement from students and staff.

Our son has thrived in the Munster school system, and we are grateful for WWMS’s work to support the adolescents in our community.

Although some kids may not get in trouble with bullying because of a tragic intervention of their life, overall the school's teaching is fair.
