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've been in Winnfield school systems my whole life. When I started high school I was very nervous as every kid is but this school made me feel welcome. I'm not going to lie it's not perfect but it's good. Teachers are always wanting to help and see you shine. And you will always find your place here. And if you don't you can make your own.

At Winnfield Senior High School(WSHS) there are good things about it and things that could be worked on. What makes WSHS different than other schools is we are always ready to lend a helping hand if need be. It's a small-town school everyone knows everyone. Tiger Nation. Once a Tiger, always a Tiger.

I've been at this awful establishment for 4 years now. I've seen no form of student government, no care for education by any of the staff, nor any kind of commitment to the students by any teacher. No parent should send their child to this school.
