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.

Whitewater High school has given me a very rich high school experience. There is so much to get involved with and our academics are constantly above and beyond.

My experience with whitewater is very both good and bad they have problems that could be better The good parts are that they have a lot of school spirit, and they have good counselors. They also hope with schedules and planning for the future they could improve on food and facilities like administration, but overall they are not bad. They make sure that you succeeded and focus on the future and not the past they also make sure that you know what you're doing and you stay on track .

The school has its fair share of homework, but the teachers and support staf...

Graduating students are attending Ivy League schools, excellent private colleges and universities, and public institutions. This is a highly rated school district for a r...
