Wheeler is one of the best high schools around in cobb county. Of course every school has its ups and downs, but in general wheeler is a great school. Kids are evaluated to the extreme by their instructors, I personally love love love my teachers. They enforce my teammates and I to succeed in everything we are tasked. I enjoyed every semester I spent here at wheeler, and now I'm ready to graduate. I will miss this school dearly.
This school has offered our children an amazing educational opportunity, with strong academic programs that also teach our kids about becoming life learners and contributors to the world around them.
Although I am in district for Walton High School, I decided to attend the magnet program at Wheeler and I am so glad that I did! The magnet program is a great program because you are still involved with the rest of the school. As a senior this year, there are so many cool activities that I get to share with the entire senior class such as the ice cream truck that was brought in last week to give us all free ice cream! I feel so proud to be graduating from this school! Love it!
Wheeler is ranked high on many "best high schools" lists and I can certainly see why! They offer a wide variety of programs to the very diverse student body. My child is extremely involved in their band program and journalism class and I could not be more happy with their academics! The teachers are amazing and the guidence office is always helpful!
Both of my children attend Wheeler having come from private schools in Atlanta. The education they are receiving is exceptional thanks to the professional, dedicated teachers and support personnel. Many are there very early in the morning or later in the afternoon/evening to assist the students or sponsor clubs. Wheeler's block schedule has allowed them to explore additional interests. Rather than the bubble a private school might offer, Wheeler gives them the opportunity to get to know a diverse group of students.
Wheeler is a wonderful school for me personaly. As a senior here in wheeler, I can say that the past 3 years spent in Wheeler has been great. I've had the most amazing, dedicated and supportive teachers. They sacrifice alot of their time to help us students into getting alot of our work done. The schools programs and cool activities such as clubs and sports are so fun. I'm so glad and proud to be graduating from Wheeler.
My students love this school. No school is perfect but this one has given them the chance to learn about the whole world through their classmates. So many different nationalities, so many terrific kids.
I attend wheeler high School myself, and I would strongly recommend the school. The teachers are excellent, and we just received a new principal that is outstanding. The school is VERY diverse, and the students all different . Yes, there are the usual conflicts, but what school doesn't have these problems. I love Wheeler . Great School. Plus the school will soon be rebuilt. Great School . :)
I attend Wheeler High School. I pretty much hate it here, it's dirty, it's ugly, I feel uncomfortable here. There are too many conflicts (fights). It's a place you look foward to leaving. The principal and staff are great! Just..the students are horrible, that brings the whole school down.
I would say that Wheeler is an excellent High School. My daughter who is now in her 2nd year of College was well prepared for college. All students have to do a Senior project as part of their grad requirements, by far the best idea that this school could have come up with. They have to actually choose a career and work with a mentor in that field. My daughter wanted to major in Accounting and was paired up with an excellent mentor who gave her a lot of information. She later realized that she loved math, but instead of Accounting have choosen to Major in Chemical Engineering. Without the Senior project she may have choosen the wrong career. This school prepare her on all levels. The parents are very involved on all levels. School spirit, is a WOW! LOVE THIS SCHOOL...
