With many spirit weeks and silly contests Winfield is a unique school. College prep English has been the exact thing I needed as a senior. There has been some problems with vandalism in the bathroom. Overall Winfield is a decent school with several fun extracurriculars and classes.

It may be small, but Winfield High gives more of a family feeling rather than just going through school. The teachers care about the students, and take the time to get to know them.

By far not the best school my children have gone too. A lot of parent communication as teacher communication lacks. Took my daughter off an IEP because her study habits make up for where she lacks and she struggles now because of it. However, they didn't want to hear the parent reasons why to keep her on an IEP.
