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.

While I attended Wyomissing, I had a good experience. They have a good curriculum that challenges their students and prepares them for their future in college or trade. Wyomissing offers BCTC and/or internships for students looking to gain knowledge and build skills in their future careers. The teachers are kind and helpful. If you have a question, just ask. They have plenty of resources to help students and parents.

Overall, Wyomissing is a great academic school with strong programs and administration that cares and is involved with student success. Within the district, there is a lot of diversity, but that diversity is not necessarily shown in the classroom or in athletics.

Wyomissing is a good school as long as your child is either an athlete or a gifted student. If your child is in between, a student who could excel with a little help or is not interested in sports, then your child will fall through the cracks and be left behind. There is no in between. I would not r...

Wyomissing is an excellent school. I particularly enjoyed the attention I received due to the size of classes and dedication of the teachers. There are some teachers at Wyo that would feel at home at an excellent college and they prepared me well for college. I think it was and still is a great plac...
