I've been at WTHS for pretty much my entire high-school life. It has it's ups and downs just like any other high-school, but I can admit that the staff and administrators are trying to change it for the better as the years go by. The changes and renovations to the building make it more inviting and by proxy, brings life to the atmosphere. There's more to the school now than there was when I first got here in 2021. My senior year has been fun thus far.

Don't come here at all its a nice place at first the people are messy and picky the kids depend on the other ones for their work to be completed the teachers with the lowest job titles think its their priority to teacher outside of thier subject that they haven't been asked to do nor did we ask them to teach and this same teacher has a very smart mouth when you ask for help the food is not good most of the time you can't bring your own from home if you wanted to the staff the see real bullying happening and dosen't say a word and its a selected amout of kids who actully wanna learn thats it

On a scale of 1-10, this school district gets a 1 in my opinion. The previous comments sound great but honestly they are somewhat sugarcoated. I am a community member who has relatives working and going to school here, and their morale is low right now. There have been bright spots and some of the t...
