Waller is a great school! It's not as competitive as other high schools, so many of the tests are curved and there's an emphasis of learning over just grades. I feel like I genuinely try to learn here and am more inclined to learn not just for the sake of getting high grades!!

I was a 2022 graduate from Waller High School. The best part of my high school years was being able to work online. The worst part of high school for me personally was getting up so early. Honestly I would rather get out later than get up earlier. The changes I would like to see in Waller High School would be having a meteorology class.
