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.

Whitewater High School was a pretty small school but there was something for everyone to find a place to feel like they belong. They have multiple clubs, organizations, sports, and volunteer activities. There are certain teachers that make the school environment a friendly and support place.
2.0 Sophomore

The school doesn't care about all of its programs. It mostly cares about the failing athletics department. We also lost most of the good teachers in the school recently causing my rating to plummet. Other than the teacher loss we are also absorbing another district so if you got no attention before you will only get less now. This district is going into the ground.
4.0 Senior

Something that the school could have done better was prepare us and the teachers for our senior portfolios, it seemed that every question we had about the portfolios the teachers did not know how to answer. They also could have helped students with the ACT, I did take the class to prepare you for the ACT but not everyone could fit it into their schedule and I think the least the teachers could have done was talk about simple strategies for the ACT in their homeroom class.

Excellent combination of academics and extracurriculars. Caring and involved administrators and staff. Many AP offerings as well as arts and music. My student has had an excellent High School experience.
