As a parent, my experience with my Wharton high school over the last two years has been extremely disappointing and emotionally exhausting. Despite repeated requests for assistance, meetings, emails, and ongoing concerns regarding academic performance, behavior, and documented disabilities, I have c
Posted by a parent on 5/12/2026This school is hit or miss. Our oldest went all four years had a mostly positive experience and we got very familiar with some great teachers and guidance staff. However, your youngest child has had a nightmare experience over the last four years. Bullying was off the charts, my kid’s mental health
Posted by a parent on 10/11/2022My daughter has had very positive experiences with teachers and peers. It is wonderful to see the number of friends attempting to Choice into Wharton. There are amazing strides by the administration and teachers to make Wharton a very desirable school. As a student athlete, my daughter was able to e

7/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThis is our first year and my child is in kindergarten. We moved from a State where the only option was private school and they expected perfection from babies. That being said my child has excelled here. She is academically doing well and has finally found her place. For my child the environment and rewards system they use for behavior has been wonderful. They also seem to understand that kids will be kids but take the right things seriously. Everyone on staff I have encountered has been very pleasant and seem to really like being there. PTA also seems very involved and I would almost equate them to what I have seen in private settings which says something. We have many years to go but hopefully my child will continue to grow at this school.Parent Review1y ago - Clark Elementary School

7/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageStudents at this school are not safe. Teachers and administrators put their hands on children and verbally abuse them. When mistreatment is reported, administrators do nothing because they protect the teachers instead of the students.If you care about your child’s mental health, do not send your child to this school. I don’t care how many fake or made-up reviews they post or how often they brag about being an “A” school. This is one of the worst public schools my child has ever attended.It’s probably also why they removed the Google reviews section so parents can’t see what’s really going on here.Parent Review4mo ago - Pride Elementary School

NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThe teachers go above and beyond. The school has cameras that record everything and security guards (retired military) that really care for the students. The diversity helps students feel welcomed. As a parent I love that my kids get to praise God at school and learn about the bible with other Christian kids.Parent Review5mo ago
