Summary

Wylie High School is a large, high-performing public high school in Wylie, TX, serving 3,189 students in grades 9-12 as part of the top-ranked Wylie Independent School District (Isd). This school consistently earns a 5-star rating and ranks in the top 10% of Texas high schools, boasting an exceptional 98.7% graduation rate and a very low 0.2% dropout rate—both significantly better than state averages. With a relatively low percentage of students receiving free/reduced lunch (24.77%), the school serves a predominantly middle-to-upper-middle-class community and demonstrates strong academic outcomes across the board.

Wylie High School stands out among nearby schools for its consistent top-tier performance. While it trails the elite Lovejoy High School (ranked 68th), it outperforms its district rival Wylie East High School (ranked 205th) and significantly surpasses schools in neighboring districts like Naaman Forest High School (ranked 1405th) and Sachse High School (ranked 672nd) from the Garland Independent School District (Isd). Its STAAR test scores in Biology (84.81%), English I (78.38%), English II (83.28%), and U.S. History (86.37%) are all higher than Wylie East's, reflecting a broad, high-quality academic program. The school also demonstrates strong performance for key student subgroups, particularly African American and White students, indicating equitable educational outcomes.

An interesting finding is that while Wylie High School excels overall, its performance for Asian students (67th percentile) and Gifted and Talented students (68th percentile) is notably lower than its overall rank, suggesting room for growth in challenging its highest-achieving learners. The school also operates efficiently, spending $10,515 per student—less than Wylie East ($11,204) and far less than the alternative Achieve Academy ($25,817)—while achieving superior results. This efficiency, combined with the strength of the Wylie ISD, makes Wylie High School a top choice for families seeking a high-performing, well-rounded education in a competitive academic landscape.

I had 6 kids graduate from here. Fabulous school with the best principal ever. Close Quote

My kids have been in Wylie ISD since 1998 and we absolutely love it! WHS has the BEST principal. How many principals have you met can call each student by name and probably know most of their parents? One who attends almost every single school event, who hand writes notes to encourage each faculty and student? Highly recommend this awesome school! Close Quote

I grew up in Richardson but I've been living in Wylie/Murphy area since 1999. I purposely avoided Plano school district when my kids were younger because of my experience growing up in saturated school. My kids are now in 11th grade and 5th grade, I am 100% satisfied with Wylie school district, I can truly feel that our educators care for their students. Highly recommend to all who has never considered moving to Wylie! Close Quote
