I loved the whole school! There were not as many sports as i would have liked and clubs are really bad ngl. The teachers are pretty good tho!

A very good school, especially for a public school. Fantastic Latin Teacher in particular. Not very diverse- it's in a wealthy, mostly white neighborhood.

WJHS, Wilmette Junior High School, overall is a very great school. They have a lot of programs for kids interested in them, such as Orchestra, Science Olympiad, Track etc. If you put in work you will get great experience. On the other hand, a lot of what this school teaches is boring/uninteresting, so a lot of kids don't do the work and fall behind. There is also a very dominate social structure, with groups and rankings. You can be a nerd, jock, wannabe, and you'll probably be stereotyped that way. I was lucky because I found my group and was happy with it, but there was a lot of drama in the school.

My students had a great experience at WJHS, and the middle school (Highcrest). The principals and teachers were impressive in their depth of knowledge regarding academics, educational innovations and the social pressures of tweens/teens. They felt supported and were definitely felt prepared to succe...
