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.

Going through this school is a rollercoaster, really. There are so many stresses that some of the classes can put on you but when you follow them you see that it was good for your future. My Senior year has been stressful, but it prepared me a little bit.

I liked the teachers at this school. The teachers that I had through the years are teachers that I believe I could come to at any time with any problem. They will help me through anything and everything.

I like Waverly High school because it is a small town school where everyone knows one another. I met all of my childhood friends in Waverly, NE. I was apart of a variety of different athletics, extracurricular activities, clubs, and classes.
