Great school. I came to WHS my senior year. Best decision I could ever have made. The only bad thing is I didn't come to Winfield earlier.

For the past three years I have attended Winfield High School. It has been a great experience. I love the people and the community. I have learned so much here and the academics are amazing. the sports are even better. I won a state championship last year in baseball. I wouldn't want to go to any other high school.

It's a good school Winfield High School does alot with the students. They keep the parents informed about everything that is going on. The teachers are good too they take their time and help you out when you need it. Sports are good they do alot for the sports almost everytime they do something. The School is a perfect place to send your kids your safe there they put up really nice stuff just incase a lock down comes down. Winfield will get to the bottom of a problem if there is one.

There is a notable amount of racism, sexism and homophobia. All of these are overlooked. That said, it could...
