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.

Good school, some teachers that try and some that don't, lunch is not bad but not the best, some sport coaches try and sum don't care instead of just winning

High-school has taught me so much. It's taught me to be patient with myself and also to just let go and have fun sometimes. My overall high in high school has definitely been making good friendships and going to the football games. My biggest lows in high school has been ACT test taking and the stress that comes with junior year.

Throughout my high school experience, I've had many fun experiences thanks to the opportunities given to me from Wetumpka High School. There are many clubs and extra-curricular activities that can be partaken in. Also, the counselors seem to genuinely care about the students as they try to help them in any way possible.
