This School’s Reviews

5.0 Senior

2/28/2025

I have really loved this school. I would not be where I am today academically if it were not for Wolcott. Every teacher cares for the students and their success in a very supportive way. The high school offers so many great opportunities and extracurriculars. There is such a great community here and I feel so lucky to be part of it.

A welcoming community that really "gets" my kid. Though small, they work hard to give students a chance to experience many different extra curricular activities and sports.

Wolcott was a game changer for our son who is gifted with ADHD. He transferred his Junior year and we wish he could have attended all four years. The staff brings out the best academically, socially and emotionally. It's an incredible and special place.
