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.

I love Wallington High School and the sense of family that comes with being a student. With such a small school, a tight-knit community is formed that I would not have traded for the world.

It is a small school that has genuine people in it. Teachers at school are very understanding and want to help the students out. It's also a very safe school in a safe neighborhood. The sports teams are not very successful except soccer but you can still have a lot of fun.

The school is in a small town so you get to know everyone and make strong bonds with those around you. I love how easy it is to work with staff and administration. They are always present when needed. My only request would be to work towards showcasing open-mindedness.

Terrible terrible-if you are outside of the norm culture that lives in Wallington you are in for no surprise, no support specially if your child has a disability. Guidance is a joke-most teacher seem burnt out-the support for different cultures or diversity doesn’t exist @ this school!

I am a former student of whs who left in late 2019. I graduate in 2023. Let me tell you. We were promised that it would be a great experience when we made the move from gavlak elementary. Instead of being a proper middle-high school experience, it was nothing near that. Wallington is a school with a...
