(5 / 5) Flag as inappropriate - This school has a strong school spirit. The students achievement is shown by the large academic scholarships awarded to each graduating class. National Honors are consistently awarded to Wooster High School.

(3 / 5) Flag as inappropriate - Most of the teachers are mean and there is one particular bus driver I absolutely don't like. She picks favorites and I hate it. I don't much like the school either. I would rather be at Northwestern. That is my review, hope u liked it.

- I don't like the teachers or the students at this school. It seems like every year, there are more rules and more restrictions on what we can or can't do. I don't like the discipline system either. I used to be a straight A student, now I get C's and D's. I blame this on the school.
I think if the school paid more attention to the students needs, it would make this school a better place for both the teachers and the students.
