Overall, I think Wootton High School is a good school. The academics are top tier, most of the teachers are helpful, and there is a vast amount of extra curricular activities. However, if you're a black student then you will experience racism from other students (Whites, Asians); and possibly even teachers at times. But in totality, Wootton is a great school and I would definitely recommend it to anybody!
My experience at Wootton was pretty standard. The school was welcoming and inclusive, allowing people from different backgrounds to embrace themselves. They always tried their best to provide high quality education to their students. I had a great high school experience here and i wouldn’t change a thing. Even though covid hit in the middle of my junior year, the school and the teachers did a fantastic job at keeping the kids engaged in their school work as well as keeping everyone safe during a global pandemic. It is clear that Wootton values their students individually as a person. there are so many clubs and afterschool activities in order for many students to be engaged in and to show their school spirit. I enjoyed many of their club activities as it was a core memory of High School for me. I do however wish that the school offered more language classes and electives. Regardless, the school is excellent and well known for not only their education but their community as well.
The academics at this school are great. The teachers want you to understand topics, and for the most part, are kind. The culture, however, is horrendous. Letting someone walk before you? What’s that? Holding the door for the person behind you? Never heard of it. There’s just a lack of concern for those around us. And, my goodness the cliques. People stick together with people that are just like them, whether that’s based on race or wealth or your perceived intelligence. This isn’t inherently bad, but it’s the unwillingness to venture outside of the teeny tiny circles that they stay fixed within that is harmful. And maybe it’s me. I came from a small school in a much more friendly/homey area. But if you’re looking for a nurturing school environment, I’d say keep looking.
