My experience at Waconia High School has been 4 of the best years of my life. I have found lifelong friends, encountered passions I never knew about, and met and interacted with many different trusted adults who only want the best for me. I have never once questioned my safety while attending Waconia High School, I feel very safe and cared about attending Waconia High School. As well as the diversity and culture at this school is amazing and one of a kind. I wouldn't trade these last 4 years of my life for anything.

Diversity in music and art classes and other areas such as mathematics and science. Many opportunities for college credit classes as well. Mostly great teachers who are very understanding and helpful.

I had a great experience at Waconia High School. The teaching staff are great and they all want you to be successful in life. I was involved in a couple of sports which we were very competitive and had excellent coaching staff as well.

I am a involved parent and I have to say I love this school and district. No school is perfect. WHS excels at the environment. We have...

Absolutely terrible school. Very clicky and very snobbish. Teachers are not directed very well. The overall quality and content of the education is subpar in comparison to the surrounding communities. I highly recommend not sending your teenaged children to these schools. If you must send them to WH...
