Williamson County Schools Reviews

Williamson County Schools provide excellent academic opportunities for all students willing to challenge themselves. Both dual enrollment and a wide variety of AP classes are offered to students in order to help prepare them for college life and beyond. While academics are always prioritized, sports and other extra-curricular options are recommended to help grow and nurture student relationships. Everything from habitat for humanity to ping pong club is sponsored to bring students closer together. One difficult thing about attending a school in Williamson County is the lack of diversity and close mindedness. Nearly the entire population is white and of a homogeneous mindset, which creates a sense of security that the real world doesn't offer; crippling the ability to compromise because there are few disagreements. All in all, Williamson County Schools offered me the vigorous classes I desired, allowing me to feel prepared for life outside high school.

With all that has happened lately with the school shootings, I feel afraid that might happen to my school. But the faculty and staff have taken the time to fix any problems that threaten the safety of the school. They even cancelled school one day for the students and called all the staff to go over and improve safety procedures the entire day! Knowing that my teachers and administrators take my safety that seriously makes me feel like my school is not only superior academically, but also in safety.
My freshman year was great! I loved the staff, peers, and the administration. Although everything just went downhill after I left the county for my Sophomore and Junior year. I came back for my Senior year and I can see there is a lot that is not as good as it use to. I would love the Williamson School District to have a lot more school spirit, like it use to.
