I graduated from there in 1994 and it was a terrible experience then and now my kids have gone through and have been treated even worse. With the exception of 2 or 3 of the teachers who actually care about their students, the teaching has gone downhill in fact there have been several teachers who think its ok to talk bad about their students. The administration can careless about their students especially when it comes to bullying and does nothing except lie and even break the law. It is time for the principals of the school and the useless teachers and superintendent to step down or retire from a position that they clearly have no clue what theyre doing in.

As an alumni from class of 2019, I think this school is great for a normal highschool experience, but with the competition with trying to be a better school than others in the district is failing and bringing the kids down with it. they push the narrative of how progressive and inclusive they are but are but actually dont reinforce any of that progressiveness in the curriculum or in the hallways. principals and teachers get unnecessarily strict for undermining things but then dont have the same energy for serious situations. some very rare hidden gems of teachers in here tho. shoutout english teacher mr. hartz for being a real one and spreading joy thru his joys in life. shoutout mrs brooks the orchestra teacher for being so nice and a beautiful role model and continuously inspiring me to continue music. -paige volk

I think homework could be handled better, it doesn't effectively reinforce what is taught in class. Most homework can be copied and reproduced, a lot of it is a waste of time.

Few very bad teachers but the rest are between average to very very good. A lot of teachers hit that point where students respect them and want to learn, while they command the classroom effectively with respect, not with force. These teachers are able to make the class enjoyable and enable learning.

Very decent in the category, efforts are made but are ineffective but social problems between students need to be SOLVED not just punished. For example solving a fight is more important than brutally punishing it.

Leadership could be done better for a lot of teachers, rules are enforced well at the administrative level, unfortunately some less important rules are over enforced while some very important rules arent.

The method of teaching is effective but isnt too broad. Student who get it do exceptional those who dont fall behind.

Give or take, could be better could be worse.

CPS has been placed in the WSC schools. They are not reaching quotas ftom state therefore are causing many problems for families especially those wirh special education students.

This is a great school to send children to. WSE HS offers unique programs for the college bound kids.
