This is a great place for your children to attend school. The administration and faculty care and try hard to take care of and teach the students. I also attended school here and have many fond memories of the Wetumka School system.

Strong Science program but it is really suffering in the math department. The band and other music programs are a joke. The administration in that high school have no clue what they are doing. Bullying and fighting are everyday things in this school. I strongly suggest if you live in the area to send your child to Moss, Weleetka, or Dustin.
