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.
The Test Score Rating reflects annual state test results for this school compared with scores statewide.

The overall atmosphere and diversity of the school are quite spectacular to me. I also love the grade 6-12 and early college benefits. I can meet and stick with people for a while. Although the main campus is only decent to me, I really enjoy the freedom and atmosphere of being on a college campus and getting an early college education to better prepare myself.

I would like to be more challenged in my academic classes. The teachers are great, but they have to meet the needs of all ability levels, so the upper level students are not challenged as they should be.

This school is a college prep school so there is not an emphasis in the Arts, but more a focus on core curriculum. We love that there are male teachers teaching our boy as they pro...
My son has been a student at WYMLA since the 6th grade. As a 9th grader he is far and above on track for college graduation having already received several credits. All of his teachers are caring and expect the best of my son. The class sizes are relatively small so there are times when small groups...
We love the smaller class size and the personal attention the boys get. My son has done much better in this environment than he did at his traditional elementary school. We are very happy here.
