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.

Throughout the years that I've been attending this high school, I have not had bad experiences. Not that they were all good but I wouldn't consider them bad either. School life here has been going very smoothly. I've had various academic opportunities available to me and even more chances to connect with my peers. Overall, my experience at this school has been fine; the only thing I would like changed is the school spirit.

During my time at Williams Junior Senior High School, I realized I was not given as many opportunities as other students who attended different schools. Williams is a small town with limited opportunities, however it being a small town makes it best at connecting to people and the community easier which is one of the things I love most about my high school. I would love to see williams students be offered more opportunities in the future as I have relatives in younger grades.
