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.
The Test Score Rating reflects annual state test results for this school compared with scores statewide.

At Winfield Mt. Union, most of the teachers are very friendly and care a lot about their students. Many classes, in my opinion, are too easy. I feel that many teachers don't prepare adequeatly enough for each day.

There are not many extracurriculars at this school but the ones we have are well constructed and have good support and teamwork when needed. There isn't a lot besides the basic sports like football, volleyball, basketball, track, softball/baseball, golf, etc.
