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.

I believe Wolfe City High school would be a better place if the curriculum was not all about STAAR tests. I also believe there should be more food options for kids with allergies.

Throughout my educational journey at Wolfe City Independent School District, I have been mostly pleased with the staff, and classes that I have been enrolled in. At Wolfe City HS, the staff and administration truly care about the well-being and development of their students, which has been a pleasure to experience first hand. I have rarely had any interactions that were less than pleasant with WCHS staff, and there is generally a friendly atmosphere. WCHS is a small school, so staff are able to focus on the individual needs of students, making the schooling experience far more personal. Even though Wolfe City is a small school, I would like to see the pool of elective classes widened to include more specific vocations, but other than that I don't have any complaints.

If academics are not of any importance this is a great school. They lack advanced placement classes and have have very few non-athletic extra curriculars. Their lack of ethnicity and diverse cultures mean they have to meet very few requirements to be considered an exemplary school by TAKS standards,...
