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.

Stay away from FCPS. They refuse to fire bad staff, including bus drivers. They took 9 months to start an IEP and failed to maintain it properly. This school is a joke and so far (2023-24). I have nothing good to say about Fayette County Public Schools.

My daughter loves WJHS! The teachers and the staff really care about the students. Under the new leadership, this school is on its way to being 5 stars.

This school has so much to offer to students, such as STAR classes for advanced learning, STEM, and the addition of the Pentathlon competition this year. There are so many opportunities for students!
