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.

There are many recourses here to help with college admissions, scholarships, and many other types of financial aid. The teachers and counselors here are good at helping students and making sure that they have everything they need to be successful.

There's nothing really special about my school. It's not as good as other schools. It does it's job and surves it's purpose. It's not just the school though, sometimes the students are the main cause of the problems.

Honestly the school is fine its just the way many students act some literally throw food thinking it's funny and they don't pick up after themselves. Some students just think they are so entitled there needs to be more discipline for most actions.

I'm a current junior at Wapato High School. I've been attending Wapato Schools since kindergarten. WHS is a great school, but students, and even teachers, lack motivation and school spirit. From my experience, teachers don't really help, which causes the students to do poorly. We have no lack of mot...
