  • I graduated from Wells High School in 1978. I must say that Wells High School paved the way for my success.
    I thank Mr. Bradley, my math teacher, for his many encouraging words. He said to be "better than the best".
    This school laid the foundation. I built on the foundation!

  • Wells ISD is a low budget of a so called "school". I would not send my child to this school...ever. It has low educated teachers, poor matenince, and "slide by" grades. Send your kids to Alto High School. Alto is the home of the champions.
