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 liked that most of the teachers were friendly and the fact that the community is small and together.

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's safe. It's quite and not much happens, the education system left me unsatisfied with the number of classes you can choose. they only leave academics for you to choose and don't bother with other classes that could help a student explore what she/he likes and would want to do in the future.

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!
