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.

They do not care about students or parents here. The school and it's staff are a joke. They disrespect you if you are a stepparent and dismiss you when concerned about a stepchild's schooling. Send your child to Trinity instead of this joke for a school.

Wash high has alot of good opportunities for kids who put in the effort and it has a relatively good discipline system. Wash high is also considered to be a "melting pot" school because it is super diverse and has alot of opportunities for all races and ethnicities.

I was a pretty good student at Washington High, a lot happens and is overall a pretty good high school. It teaches you things about life that other schools just simply can't teach. Such as seeing people from every single way of life all the way from income to which side of town you live on. Wash High has forever shaped my life.
