Rating 4.07 out of 5 43 reviews
It was an alright experience, but because COVID caught us off guard, it became much harder to do clubs, make friends, and enjoy school. I did feel entirely left out of a lot of things because I joined in 10th grade and the district goes from kindergarten to 12th grade. It became somewhat isolating being one of the few people there who had not known their entire grade and it was mostly just a few close people that I knew from that school. The education was good though, all of the teachers did a good job and were able to teach well. The scheduling system changing every day was also a nice touch and kept things interesting enough to not feel like a cycle going back to school and having to do the exact same things over and over again. Overall, I had an okay experience as the education was good but it felt socially isolating at times especially since the virus impacted us.
Very pleased with Wiss education starting with kindergarten all the way to being a high school senior. They made the transition to middle school and high school seamless and comforting. Teachers, Counselors and Staff are hands on and caring and provide a positive environment for students . Wissahickon has several communication platforms for parents and students to be notified about daily schedule, upcoming events and school closures. Schools offer a variety of clubs and sports to choose from and the entire district has school spirit. Go trojans!!
I genuinely enjoyed my time at this school. Most teachers are educated and eager to teach their students. Despite that, some departments are very underfunded. Most of the sport department money gets invested into the football team, which has not won anything significant in years, while completely ignoring talented and high achieving teams of other sports.
