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.

This is a good school, don't get me wrong, but there are a few things that need to be worked on. For one, the food is not good to me whatsoever. Some of the kids are so rude and mean for no reason. However, the teachers I have had or have now are amazing, I love them so much.

I loved the school. I always felt safe in the environment and all of the teachers genuinely cared about my well-being and my academics.

Washington County High is an overall average school to me. The staff and students are wonderful and that is what I am going to miss the most when I graduate but, the Administration needs work. Other than that I wouldn't go to different school if given the option #bleedblackandgold #strongertogether

This place sucked so much that I would not even want to begin thinking that I wasted 4 years of my formative years here.
