When it comes to the real world and applying to college, most seniors at this school are not ready. They don't teach us the necessary things we need for life. For example, the only class that taught me anything important for life outside of high-school (that I need to know before college) was Financial Math.

Not enough coordination to make a single program extremely successful. Money is wasted on extraneous ideas and not focused on properly preparing students for real life.

Overall, my experience with with Wills Point High School so far (this is my last year,) has been positive. I joined dual credit, which my school partners with SFA to achieve, all my teachers except one were amazing. A few things I would like to see change is handling lower class better, for example, the Freshman this year are absolutely awful and there are few punishments to try and fix that.

There is a tradition of pride at Wills Point HS. They have an excellent fine arts program, with a state ranked marching band. The CTE program is outstanding, with new programs added each year.

Wills Point High School is one of the best schools in the state. Both of my children are in high school and they love it! Our high school offers a lot of programs for students to be involved in and we have one of the best CTE programs in the state!
