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.

For such a small town and school I think the school offers a lot of sports and clubs. The teachers have all been fairly nice and welcoming. Academically they keep to the states' standards. I will say they've reported the food is not good and they'd like to bring lunch instead. Generally speaking my children have liked attending here.

All 3 of my children went to Whigham from K - 8 and received an excellent education. Sadly, the county is poorly funded and they have to do a lot of fund raisers, but they have an active PTO that helps fund much needed school improvements.
