Walter Johnson was never a Top 5 Nationally Ranked School. No public HS is. It is a perennial runner up to the neighboring High Schools Winston Churchill and Walt Whitman.

As of 2024, Walter Johnson is the 15th-ranked high school in Maryland and the 855th-ranked nationally, according to U.S News and World Report.

All High Schools in MD and especially Montgomery County are Woke and have been for a long time.

WJ does draw from the neighborhoods Johnson actually lived in which is kinda neat. The local baseball team "Big Train" (Collegiate League) plays nearby at Shirley Povich field.

11 seasons with an earned run average below 2.00, and what seems almost incomprehensible a century later, 531 complete games in 666 starts.
