Williamstown High School Reviews
Rating 3.59 out of 5 370 reviews
WHS is a relatively large school (with about 2000 students), so there are the typical cliques you'd expect: gamers, popular athletic kids, loners... but even with this, there is such a close-knit community. We're the Braves, sharing this common attachment to our school. People may bash it for the struggling football team or the fights, but when we do something extraordinary—when our classmates achieve greatness—we're proud. There is a reason why people go to sports games and participate in the spirit weeks.
Our extracurriculars especially foster this heart, with clubs like the Student Council, DECA, and the Foreign Language Club doing so much around the school. I couldn't imagine WHS without Halloween at the High School, Community Day, or the school store.
There is so much more to say, but even then, it would never be enough to summarize my experiences. WHS has been a whirlwind of life-changing adventures, and I could not be more thankful for everything it has given me.

Williamstown High School was an incredible experience for me. I had met all of my closest friends there and I was able to learn more about myself and what I wanted to do in life. The teachers were all very friendly and involved with their students' learning. That being said, the school had its faults concerning administration. They had neglected various parts of the school out of convenience and ignorance and enforced rash policies without properly explaining their purpose. Other than that, I enjoyed my time at Williamstown.
I have had an amazing 4 years at Williamstown High School. From the extracurricular activities, to the great faculty members, Williamstown is the best high school ever. The best parts of being at Williamstown is the relationships I have made with students and teachers. I am a tutor at my school, so I always meet different people and become friends with everyone. I have been taught by some of the best teachers in the world who love their job and are passionate about teaching. That is only a part of what makes the Williamstown teachers the best. Some parts that I would like to see changed is the hallway/bathroom situations. I wish there were separate bathrooms for those students who are in AP classes. From experience, I have had to wait in a line of 10 people just to use the bathroom, while missing valuable information from my AP class. Overall, I love going to school at Williamstown and I am sad to have to leave after this year. It was the best 4 years of my life!
