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 like the close relationships you grow while here and the amazing choice in languages. There are many clubs that involve everyone. The arts program is filled with talented artists and the music program is the best in the county.

Wheeling Park High School was a wonderful school to attend. They offer a variety of classes that are unique and can help students to discover career paths. The teachers are friendly, and most are very good at what they do.

Now, as a student, and a current student, I would like to point out that this rating is not because of the lack of an education I am receiving. I have full confidence that this school is doing quite fine with giving children an appropriate amount of things to build off of for later life and / or col...
