I feel I made the right choice for my daughter to be enrolled in WHS rather than Palm Beach Lakes. WHS is an A rated school and has a great academic curriculum.
This school has been a great educational experience for my child. I dont see the problem with the basketball coach. He is a great classroom teacher. My son really enjoyed having him. Its seem the training he puts his boys through helps them become stronger,tougher young men, hence winning the conference twice and have a 20 win season. I heard he also won coach of the year twice as well. Overall this is an A-plus school from the teachers, to the staff, to the administration, me and my wife were very pleased with the Wellington High School experience.
The school is good until you want to join the basketball team! The coach does not allow you to drink ANYTHING during running in the hot weather and if you throw up because of dehydration, it is accepted as part of training!
Both of my children have been challenged at this school. There have been opportunities for them to reach toward their potentials. I feel fortunate to have this school in our neighborhood!
WHS is a fairly good school. It's probably the best school in the area anyways. I have attended another high school in the Midwest and i liked it there much better. Not many of the teachers care about teaching or the students. Teachers here tend to pick favorites and forget about others. The buildings are dull and the normal classes are boring. Athletics here are good and students have an equal chance to make the teams. I played girls flag football and I loved most of the coaches. The school prepares you for college well both athletically, in most sports, and academically.
This school is the best, it's very challenging and offers lots of opportunities. There are about 15 AP classes, well educated teachers and a trustworthy principle, Mr Crocetti. So far I haven't got any disrespect from any teachers. They actually care about your grades and push you to the next level. Lot's of programs and extra curriculum activities are offered like SAAD, the young democrats, Academic Games, Step Team, 1st Priority, Vet program, Math Lab etc. The food is delicious, it is well cooked with the right temperature. I enjoy being a student at Wellington High School and it is one of the best in Palm Beach County.
I'm currently a freshmen at Wellington High. Parents, do you want reliable education programs, helpful teachers, and a great school in a safe environment? Located in the comfortable suburbs, Wellington High is the choice for you. My math teacher, is amazing and really wants his students to succeed. This school has 'Math Lab' after school for students how need help. The also have stuff like that for English & reading too. Wellington High is sure to please the parents. Now my fellow students, are you SICK AND TIRED of having a dress code with collard shirts and tells you that you can't wear that sweet shirt you bought the other day? COME TO WELLINGTON HIGH! The dress code isn't to0 strict here. You can wear what you wear to the mall or where ever you go out to with your friends. Wellington Community High is the right choice for sure.
Horrible the other day i found out someone tried to set it on fire and there was ambulance and polic e dangros horrible hate it.
Im a parent, I just moved for South Broward, so I know how the schools are there. This is the 1st year my son is here. It has been a wonderful experience. The office staff, teacher's and after school sports, have been excellent. My son has made a lot of friends from freshmen to seniors. I couldn't be happier, I look forward for the next 3 yrs. You get out of it, what you put into it. The Grass isn't greener; believe me.
I think Wellington High is a fine school to go to.There are a lot worse schools out there.At Wellington you'll get a well public education.
