This was the worst experience of my life. This school and it's teachers failed me my senior year and didn't care. In my final parent teacher conference before I was forced to drop out my parents realized how truly awful, disrespectful, and abusive these teachers were. The principal didn't even bother to show up for this conference and sent an assistant principal who was in training. I had to seek help from previous teachers to make it halfway through my senior year and had other staff members who vouched that I did everything within my power to seek additional help and the only response from the teacher was "you aren't worth helping." That was my final straw, I dropped out, obtained my GED in two weeks and never looked back. Leaving this school was the best decision I've ever made.

Teachers are very good. The only drawback is the kids have to ride Tuscola High School bus...so have to get on bus around 7 in the morning and don't get home until around 4 in the afternoon. The route our kids are on can't seem to keep a good bus driver. Since it snowed, bus won't even come to regular pickup "due to icy roads" even though there has not been any ice on the road for a week now. We are taking our kids out of school and will home-school or virtual school them instead :-(Also if you have a question about the bus you have to contact Tuscola for info. Why doesn't WMS have their own buses...there are like 5-6 in the parking lot?!?

This a terrible school they do help the kids who struggle. And the teachers are hateful and rude all the time.
