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.

Increasing tension between administration and teachers negatively impacts student learning. Guidance department is a mess and as a senior applying to college, it has made this already stressful process a million times worse. Most of the teachers are very kind and understanding. In my experience teachers have been very accommodating to several different needs.

My experience at Woburn High has been similar to many others. Sports games, activities and clubs are very big here, as well as school spirit. I have enjoyed my years here and the teachers and programs were very helpful.
