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.

There's a lot of inclusivity. There's many clubs for varying interests and counselors/teachers to connect with. WCHS has a diverse student body. We even have a cultural assembly to show different backgrounds of the students within our high school.

Best parts would be the interactions along the way. Worst part would maybe be some of the new policies. I think leaving the phone policy and bathroom policy as was would be nice

West Carrollton High School is an extremely diverse place, and that has made communicating with people very easy. However I feel that the overall preparation for college isn't exactly great. The staff is helpful, but administration could be better at handling situations at times. Overall I enjoyed my time there.

I am on this website because I am disappointed in West Carrollton's standards. The teachers are kind yet some do not put their best effort towards teaching. Helping students personally with a problem is not good at all they address the class and leave out details. Not the entire staff is bad but a g...

As a recent graduate and transfer student from a different state I can say with assurance that West Carrollton Senior High School is a good school and one of the best choices in the Dayton area. As far as public schools go Ohio is not the best--that is what it is--in the case of WCHS it's improving....
