I've gone to WHS for four years, met a lot of people ranging from the creme of the crop to the real scum of the earth. The school isn't so large, do you can easily make it from class to class. A majority of the teachers are good people with good intentions. Probably the band was the best part of my years here and I'm sad to leave it, but glad to see what else is it there. All in all, it was a pretty darn good school to go to 7/10.

I think the teachers are very exceptional, especially for the small population of Worland, Wyoming. Teachers are always willing to provide the best education possible and do their best to prepare students for college. There are a few rules that seem ridiculous and outlandish, but nothing students haven't been able to work around

I recently graduated from Worland High School and it was an alright experience. It's a good school, but you can't have a lot of involvement unless you fit in with the expectations of people. There are a lot of clicks. Overall, the teachers were wonderful. I could have learned more though if the teachers would have pushed my class specifically. However, I will say that I'm most definitely glad I went to high school in Worland Wyoming.

In regards to WHS being concerned solely with sports programs, I believe the large and active FFA, drama, speech & debate and other organizations and activities debunk that myth. All teachers were willing to help a student if they were willing to work and ask for help. I have a suspicion the disgrun...

The school is all about sports not the kids that really need extra help. My daughter was made fun of and no one cared. She needed help in some of her classes and asked her teachers but they said she would have to just do what she could and take the grade. She was falling behind and the school was be...
