White Station High School Reviews

I love the diversity of White Station from the students to the wide range of courses offered. The teachers challenge their students with their work but in the end it helps with our learning experience. Although there is a lot of positive aspects about White Station, there are some downsides. I would like to see the restrooms be taken care of more i.e. toilet paper, soap, and paper towels. The food could also be cooked and seasoned better. Other than those two drawbacks, White Station High School is a wonderful school to go to and I am proud to be a Spartan!
Review White Station High School
Although White Station High School is nationally known for its academics, I focused on what I love and what I do best: music. The teachers they hired for the band and music program were top notch teachers with the right amount of experience. My specific band director, Mr. Sims, is a reed player just like I, and we connected like father and son. He payed me a lot of attention and gave me advice and music that helped me play at a college level before I was even in college. Overall, that made my high school experience highly worth it. I came out as one of the top musicians at that high school!
White Station High offers the Optional Schools program, as well as over 15 AP classes. The school has amazing teachers well qualified for their class they're teaching. The teachers step outside of the Common Core standards and explore more the curriculum and teach students more than required. This creates a less narrow minded society and increases the students range of intellect. WSHS students aren't taught just to take tests, but to be able to go into the world and make connections and build relationships. In addition, the school has the most diverse community than all other schools in the region. For a public school, it exceeds expectations, and many students attend here, rather than a private school.
