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 feel very safe at this school. In my overall high school experience I knew everyone in my graduating class and where they came from. Any problems were handled and Waverly has the most amazing superintendent.

Small school, lots of caring teachers who value out-of-the-box thinking. Extra services available to students to see them succeed.

At waverly, if you aren't on a sports team or in the popular circuit, you are seen as an outcast of sorts. These are the students favored by staff and students alike, because they grew up in such a small close knit town. Bullying is at quite a high rate, and it takes its toll on quite a few people. If I had to do it over again, i'd say yes, and the only reason that is, is because of the friends I did aquire while I was there. If it weren't for them I probably wouldn't be here.

I had a concern about a teacher screaming at me and when I brought it to the school’s attention they did nothing but say that my only solution to my problem was to drop the class. But they weren’t concerned about the fact that the teacher made me very uncomfortable.
