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.

Some teachers are very good at what they do and like to do it. Others are not passionate, and due to lack of teacher availability, is all that we get. The lack of resources is extremely frustrating. The town just doesn't have the money it used to, and the enthusiasm it used to have. I would love to see the school get some more government funding, and have better resources and passionate staff who are patient and want to foster a love for learning.

Not the best school around but it'll get you to college and hopefully somewhere where you want to be.

The faculty at WMHS are some of the nicest, most supporting people you will ever meet. The people here welcome you in as if you'd always been here. Overall, I'd say that WMHS has a great learning environment with even better teachers.
