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.

Very limited in what courses you can take, only about 5 in-person AP classes actually run per year. In extracurriculars, we have a ton of different sports and clubs, but a majority of the student body does not get involved.

My remaining years at Wayne Memorial wasn't bad at all except for when COVID hit everything got cancelled prom, graduation and our district championship game. Other than that attending Wayne high school was a good experience for me the atmosphere was welcoming the teachers were very helpful the school was safe because of the school officer they had in the building 24/7 and my athletic career really took off I never would've made it to college if I didn't go to Wayne.
