There are a lot of AP and Honors classes that you can take. Teachers are generally very supporting and help you when needed. There are all kinds of clubs that you can join or you can make your own. This high school prepares you for college by having counselor meetings a few times every grade level.

Wilcox Highschool created a very well and welcomed environment when doing sports and with my love for art. I enjoy learning and the teachers made that easier for me to enjoy it much more. The resources weren't always trustful due to availability, but that didn't matter to me much. I enjoyed my time there.

I entered Wilcox as a sophomore, that year was very complicated for me, since I didn't understand anything about English at all, but the support and help of the teachers made it much easier for me. My Junior year was easier, since I understood most of the English. I hope my senior year will be wonderful.
