8/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageIf you have a child with a disability, I highly recommend avoiding this school. If they don't know how to help, they just wash their hands and kick them out. Bullying is allowed if the parents have deep pockets and if their parents are part of the in-crowd.Parent Review8mo ago - Winterset Senior High School

5/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageOf our seven children, two attended here. We lived in 7 states. We found WHS to rank among the best our kids attended. The small rural community made it an even richer experience.Parent Review5y ago
