This is my first year at WGH and I'm a sophomore. I transfered from Niles and I find that I like it much more.

I am the parent of a WGH freshman. My son really enjoys going to Harding. The music program is awesome and he has made a lot of friends in the band. His classes are challenging and the teachers seem dedicated. We feel that the diversity at WGH is great and are happy that our kids can attend there.

Both my children came from another school district on Open Enrollment. My son graduated and my daughter wis a Senior this year. I agree that it is the best school around.

Both have excelled, been treated fairly, and been able to get involved in areas that would not have been available to them in the suburban school where we live. The one disappointment is the parent involvement. This is not the fault of the school as there are MANY opportunities for the involvement. Overall it is an awesome and special school. It is truly the best around. Thank-you to all that make it that way. Read less

I'm an african american female at wgh and i think harding is not the right school you would want your child to attend.

I just ended my first year at WGH, and I thought it was wonderful. The teachers are willing to help you if you are willing to help yourself.

I agree, Harding is an excellent school- if the student is motivated to learn. It s possible to go through the entire system anonymously if you want to. If you show motivation, however, most teachers will be happy to help you. The students are much less cliquish than in smaller schools, which makes

The curriculum was also very good, featuring a large list of languages and electives and an interesting schedule, which made the experience very college-like. The variety of the classes let the college-bound student get a head start on picking their chosen field. (Mine is Neurology, and the excellent sociology class taught by Mrs. Grischow opened my eyes to the field) The baccalaureate classes are also great, they really give you a leg up if you re interested in persuing a competitive college. It s by far the best school in the area. Read less

I currently attend wgh and am a sr. I think harding is a great school; however it is so large that it is very difficult for teachers to keep track of their students. This is a good thing and a bad thing. Being as though there are so many kids inrolled at wgh the it is very easy for students to skip

In college a good portion of the teachers dont care whether you pass or fail because at the end of the day they still get paid and the school has your tuition. This is also a bad thing because most kids hate school and its real easy for them to just leave. All in all harding is an awsome school. Thank you Read less
