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.

The school overall is great, the college preparation is taken seriously. We have a great school spirit with Rallies and other events. The food is eatable but it is not the best, although I have seen parent meetings they are not really active at all in school. Another thing is most schools have buses but we don ´t for some reason for sports. But overall our sports our top tier many of our sports perform on the state level, we were also awarded best division 2 school in Califorina. In general though whitney is a great school and I am lucky to be apart of it.
