My time at Wootton was great. Academically, it is definitely challenging and you get what you give. However, even as a very average Wootton student, I can see how much prepared I was for college than my peers from other schools and counties. I participated in many wootton sports, and while not every sport has an amazing record, the coaches are dedicated and care and some sports (golf, tennis hockey, and others) consistently win counties and states! As for clubs, I didn't participate much but I have friends/siblings who did and loved it. There is a wide variety and the opportunity to start new clubs if there isn't one already available. Overall, great experience.
Wootton is one of the most exceptional schools in Montgomery County. They provide many opportunities for students to engage in academics through out-of- school clubs and in school activities. They provide any needed resources that students would need. Our staff does a good job making any pep rally or football game a great time! Teachers make themselves readily available for any student who needs help, our administrators and counselors are nothing but friendly and helpful to everyone. Wootton offers many great programs for students to excel in such as Academy of Information Technology (AOIT) or our Science, Technology, and Research Scholars (STARS) program. We also hold great theater performances year around. Personally, I have never once felt unsafe at Wootton. Our security guards are always walking around during classes and all doors around the school are locked during classes. Wootton is great school overall for any student! Go Patriots!
Wootton is a great school. Its student body is very diverse and most kids are friendly. In turn, the school does a great job preparing you for college and there is a lot of peer pressure to do well in school. Moreover, there are many clubs and sports to choose from. Nevertheless, there are some problems. The infrastructure is absolutely terrible, and the school is falling apart. The bathrooms are horrendous, the food is terrible, and the building is way too old. Additionally, most teachers are helpful/kind, but certain departments are clearly lacking. Overall, I would highly recommend this school because it's the best in the county for college prep.
