I am currently a senior at Winchester High School and have thoroughly enjoyed my time here. I have enjoyed all the support from my teachers and faculty, and have had the time of my life exploring all the different opportunities in high school. Go Sachems!
Winchester High School holsters a tight knit community with amazing academics. During my time there, teachers were great and cared about each student's success.
Most of the counselors and administrators were super useful and provided students with many resources. (However, there are a select few counselors and administrators who to be quite frank... are unhelpful and at times rude to students)
The building is brand new and is easy to navigate. Technology is integrated throughout the building especially in areas like the library, language lab, and C wing classrooms.
Overall, WHS has prepared me for college and is a school full of resources. If you are considering moving here for the public education, I'd keep it in your top choices.

Winchester High School is a pretty good school and students here are very prepared for college in terms of academics. Students usually do well and learn a lot but for some electives, teachers seem to be underqualified. Teachers here also have to teach multiple subjects and levels which means teachers who aren't strong in a certain subject still need to teach it. There are also a lot of fun/interesting clubs students can participate in afterschool but the school doesn't put any funding towards supporting most clubs which is frustrating if you want to do clubs that need money to compete in competitions or events. In my experience, students here are generally nice to everyone. There's a vaping and underage drinking problem among a lot of students but you can definitely find students/a group of friends that don't do those sorts of things. Stress is also a big problem and there's a bad habit of glorifying stress and being overworked among many students.
