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.

Webster has a lot of great teachers and a wide variety of class options to choose from. I have gotten to experience many opportunities that I have been connected to including job shadowing, volunteering, personal projects, etc. With this being said, I have definitely had some challenges with some of my teachers.

One word that immediately comes to mind when I think of WGHS is home. We have such an amazing community, we have so many fun traditions and the best staff ever. The environment of this school is so spirited and supportive. Wouldn't trade my four years here for anything.

I am currently a senior at Webster High. After spending the past 3 years here, I have found that Webster is acceptable for a large portion of the student populous.
