Wooster high school is a good school, but it's also got problems that any school has. Like a couple bad teachers who make learning difficult for a majority of students. I had a science teacher and a majority of his students failed the midterm- like 95% of them. I was a good student all A's and I walked away with a C on that exam and it crushed me. But his questions were too vague and had little to do with the material we had learned. But for every bad teacher there's a couple good one's who care and want you to succeed.

The science and English departments are amazing, however the math and history departments are very hit or miss depending on what teacher you get. All other programs are very hit or miss as well.

Wooster High School has been a wonderful high school to attend. There are many different extracurricular opportunities and fantastic resources provided to each and every student. The teaching staff is well rounded, as well as the administration. The theatre program is also wonderful and a gift to each member of the drama club. I could not have asked for a better high school experience than my experience at Wooster High School.

The faculty as a whole has benefited my experience to unimaginable standards. The teachers truly care about not only your academic career, but your opinions in life and the things that go on in your life and around you. Without the excellent leadership and support from the staff at Wooster high scho...
