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.

WECA is an amazing school that allows a lot of opportunities to students interested in pursuing a college education after high school. the school is small and the atmosphere is pleasant, as well as the increased trust and freedom in students allowing for a better learning environment.

I had a great experience at Wilson Early College Academy. From the first day of school, I felt welcomed. The early college provided me with plenty of leadership opportunities, which helped me grow as a person. The teachers genuinely care about you, and are willing to help whenever they can.
