I love the diversity of Wichita Falls High School. There is a lot of different courses to choose from at Wichita Falls high school, which allows you to be more knowledgeable in different subjects. The administration and students are very accepting and genuine, I could not imagine being at a different school. Wichita Falls has many clubs to choose from, any many other opportunities for you to get involved in your school. I have met many different people, which has helped me be more accepting of others culture,religion and even race.
It’s really difficult for me to think of something that needs to change at Wichita Falls Highschool, but if I had to choose one I would probably say the process in which teachers are chosen needs to change. The teachers are very supportive but at times lack giving assignments that prepare one for future success, and giving instructions. Overall my experience has been wonderful at this high school, and I have made so many memorable moments.

I have gone to this school all four years of high school and it has truly been amazing! The staff and administrators only want the best for you. They are truly passionate about helping students learn and succeed. This school is old and has so much character, which makes us appreciate and take pride in our school even more!
Wichita Falls High School's faculty that I have been introduced to and been with is very involved and inspiring. Overall they have helped me gain confidence and prepare me for college. My teachers throughout the years have continued to take time out of their day before and after school to help me understand school material better. I feel that college information should be expressed more and harder earlier on in high school and not just toward the end of your education, so that way more children can understand the importance of their education.
