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.

My overall experience with Willowridge High School has been okay. It is fairly easy to make friends here, especially when you have all the answers to the homework haha. In all seriousness, academic wise it sucks, we are the worst high school in our district. I think the school does not prepare us for college at all, and I am scared that I will have a rude awakening when I enter college. Everything should change to be honest.

Willowridge High school is a decent high school in FBISD. Its P-TECH program helps you prepare for college as you also take real college courses! The school spirit there is also out of this world and there's a lot of good people there.
