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.

Winters High School has not been updated to meet the requirements for most students' readiness for college. They lack AP programs, clubs, sports, etc. Though the teachers and staff are like family and clearly love what they do, the facilities are subpar and there needs to be more college ready courses offered.
