Webster County High School to me has resonated with the expectations of a small town from West Virginia. You feel cared for from the teachers and receive help with whatever is needed. The worst thing I would say is the lack of connection to the administration decisions which makes us feel like we don't have a say in the rules. Other than that, I have had a good time here I just wish I would've done more extracurriculars but that is fault of my own not the school.

Had to pull child out of school and place in another due to bullying issues and lack of administration support on issues. Other parent had some of same issues but would not support trying to correct.
