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.

The best thing I have experienced is my Ap Physics 1 class. This class is really fun and interesting. This can be seen when the class works on labs which prepare us for our exams. The worst thing about school. The food is good but lacks variety.

There were many communication problems between the school administration and the teachers which often led to confusion and frustration amongst teachers as well as students.

The administration was constantly changing during my time at Warhill. I did make some great friends there, but there always seemed to be communication issues between admin and parents/students. However, through my experience there, I established what I want to do with my life. I was also blessed with a couple very special teachers who poured into me and encouraged me to pursue my goals.
