GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

Going to school at Wahoo High School has been very difficult. The students are not overly welcoming and it's hard to find friend when you are new to the district. The teachers are either overly involved or not involved at all in student's academics.

The school is heavily centered around sports and leaves out more of the agricultural classes, I have to bus down to another school in order to take them. Currently expanding for another gym and completely shrunk the shop classes. We still don't have an FFA Chapter. There are a wide verity of college courses we can take while still juniors and seniors. The teachers are nice and really understand that sometimes the work can be overwhelming.
