4/13/2025
I don't like how the admins are always locking the bathrooms throughout the day, cause I need to go to the bathroom frequently and it is a violation of basic human rights. I understand the need for education, but that shouldn't trump basic human necessities.

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.
1/20/2025
The best part at Wharton High School is definitely the extracurriculars. As said in my previous ratings, the clubs have been a tremendous part of my life and have created a community I would've never imaged. The downsides are the constant fights that happen throughout the school year.
