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.

Wright city is a growing district is struggling to keep up with its current growth. Facilities for the school could be better and they need to think more about the future rather than just satisfying people now.

It really is a great school we may not have the funding other schools have but if you apply yourself the teachers are very generous in offering there service.

The education is great at Wright city. The population really brings the students closer to each other creating a family bond between each and every student. Including the teachers as well we all treat each other like family. The only downside of it all is the lunch program. The meals are to small for how mych you're paying for the meal. Otherwise wright city is amazing

The teachers don't explain things to the students properly. They send them home with a project to do and my sister wasn't sure how to do the project as the teacher didn't say to make sure to have key points on the project. They were told to just make a billboard and a label for a water bottle. No wo...
