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 administration is has not been the best in the past 2 years. Ever since Dr. Alfred James left, thing have gone down hill. I would love for the current administration to at least pretend they care about students.

During my time at Carl Wunsche Sr. High School, I had the opportunity to grow both academically & personally in a focused, career-driven environment. The school's unique pathways helped prepare me for life beyond high school. I connected with teachers & friends who pushed me to reach my goals. My experience at Wunsche taught me the value of hard work, professionalism, & staying true to myself.

This school is over-glorified by elitist students who only have the surrounding campuses of Dekaney and Westfield to compare it to. It's RELATIVELY good but nothing special. People who claim the school will make student's GPA's go down are obviously used to incompetent teachers from their home campu...

Use to be calm and mature with some liberties, overall it was always easy to learn , but now it's like a prison, with little to no liberties, and zero interest in students education. It seems it's more motivated by money now..
