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.

I like it because ever since I've been going to this school for my high school career everyone has treated me like a brother and I love the teachers there as they are nice and with this school there are many things that you can do there and you should be able to get along with everyone.

What I mostly enjoyed at Wilton High School is that everyone knows who you are, and all the teachers know your name. This can be a good and bad thing but for most it was probably the best thing.

There isn't really much I would change about this school it has been pretty nice for the past 13 years.

Also, some coaches fall under what most small towns do. They sometimes show favoritism to kids from well-known families.
