Waite High School is where I attended throughout my freshman- and currently my senior year. The building is huge, accompanied by 3 larger fields surrounding it for football, baseball and softball. While the school is continuously progressing I don't believe it's one of the greats. The food there is terrible and it's far from clean. I think that the teachers at this school want it to be great, but the students and administration doesn't. There's no school spirit and staff turns down a lot of students for engagement. I think it's your typical underfunded public school.

This school is not a very good school for kids that are trying to excell in their lives. Multiple gangs, most teachers do not care, students do not care, students rarely attend... some teachers on the other hand are GREAT! For example Mr. Jarvis the math teacher was the best teacher i have ever had...

My experience from Waite was so-so. Half the teachers are amazing and the others were terrible. The administration goes from strict to lenient depending on the student and situation. However, the traditions and students were amazing and I loved my experience.
