Watertown High School Reviews
Rating 3.4 out of 5 107 reviews
I transferred to this school almost a year ago. My high school experience has brought me great joy and happiness. The sense of being included, various opportunities, skilled teachers, and the strong school spirit all lead to this being a rewarding and satisfying chapter in my life. I am happy to be a member of my high school and look forward to enjoying these memories for years to come.
I have been a student for Watertown for all 4 years and it’s been an okay experience. Most of the teachers are nice and some try to be strict. Good environment but not a lot of good energy.
As a senior at Watertown High School, I find the school to be alright overall. The school work is fine and they have amazing clubs! I wish that the resources for students were more than they currently are.
