Student involvement in social events or fundraisers were pretty much non existent. However the faculty and staff are very nice and accommodating, and the subjects are well taught.

The best part of Washougal High School would probably be the counselors who help you through your college application process and help make the graduation experience simpler and less stressful. The most difficult part of the school is the low participation in activities/school spirit by students and teachers.

Washougal High School is a very boring normal school, the only sport that any highschool cares about is football. All the funding for sports goes all towards football. The school itself is okay, their has been multiple counts of bullying and problems revolving around weapons at school. Washougal High School should not be recommended to anyone. I would love for Washougal High School to become more inclusive and an overall better school.
