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 am an incoming sophmore at Washington high school. I say other than the druggies it's a really good school. Most of the teachers are nice and helpful.

I really enjoy the staff. They are very kind. The principal is one of the most supportive staff member I have seen out of all years of my schooling. My family has even recognized that. He always comes to every student athletic or performing arts event!

Washington High School is where I spent the last four years of my life, and I look back on those memories with a smile. I made lots of friends, and most of the staff was super supportive of me and my goals. There are fun little activities year-round that make high schoolers smile, which isn't easy to do. I enjoyed my time at this school, even if there were times where I sat in class not learning anything for a week. :)
