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.

It has been a great experience. We are required to take multiple Project Lead The Way classes that prepare us well for using our problem solving skills

WEPA is really good at preparing you for a STEM future and being detail-oriented. However, the administration has poor communication about class offerings before the school year that classes are offered and the program lacks diversity. If you're willing to deal with all that, it's a challenging but engaging program.
