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.

WBHS was a place that had opportunities, but not enough. While the education was good, I feel like we lacked the resources to expand our horizons beyond the classroom. We had extracurriculars, but with the low budget of a small school we weren't able to take trips or go to conventions to see if those activities were actually something we would enjoy in the future.

The classes were fine and most of the teachers were actually quite great. The main problem is that the majority of the students would do nothing but complain and whine and overall make the class experience a real pain.

The sports themselves are fairly run of the mill, but the over saturated emphasis on sports by the rest of the school is down-right sickening.

This school does not have a good approach towards anything. They have many problems and I strongly disagree with going to block schedule
