Wharton High School is a decent school, I would send my child here if there was no other schools. The administration is hard to deal with and often very rude to not only the kids but also the parents. The administration seem like they don't want to do their job or want to be there.

Wharton High School has much to offer. Compared to others in the region, Wharton does what it needs to for a high school; it's limited by the quality of the campus and its curriculum. The opportunities the school does provide are unknown by many. Leading students to miss out on so much. Besides the school's history of fights, students can find many opportunities to excel at Wharton.
