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.

Many of the teachers here are nice and the diversity is unmatched in this area in virginia. The students can be nice but many aren't however I think that is to be expected from teenagers.

Awful staff. Admin doesn't listen to anyone unless it's the same 20 kids they have favored since freshman year.

I love attending Waynesboro High, even when I grow frustrated with some of the disorganization. It has a lot of heart and deserves more funding than it's currently receiving.
