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.

The best part is when you get a teacher who genuinely cares and gives you their all. The worst part would have to be the other staff that just just doesn't care enough to prepare you for anything. I would like to see all teachers and staff be able to prepare the students the best they can and how to handle real life situations.

I enjoy attending Walkertown High School. The teachers and students are very friendly and helpful. The teachers are really helpful in way that they break down topics to really ensure students are learning.

I liked how close I could get with my teachers without feeling weird. Some of my teachers truly made me feel comfortable and safe in my school environment and as they did so, it made me learn more efficiently as I was being taught from someone I knew I could trust. I think our school lunch could improve as well as the attitudes and empathy of some staff at Walkertown High.
