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.

I have had an excellent experience with this school. ever since 9th grade, I have had the best teachers and education I could ask for. the worst part would be how they handle bullying I have seen many instances where the bully wasn't punished properly and was passed on with a slap on the wrist. I would like to see better attitudes from teachers and I would like to see this school become the best it can be

I am a senior at Winston County and I love my school, all my classmates, and all of my teachers are great. I think our school system lacks discipline in the administration level. I love my principal and the people who work in the school office, I just feel as if they are bullied by our superintendent; however, this is not their fault. WCHS lacks in diversity, discipline, and resources.

If you are looking to go to college based on playing sports then our school is not the place to play. We are a medium sized school and it has been years and the only scholarship offered for sports has been 2 or 3 volleyball scholarships to community colleges.
