GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

Akron Westfield is generally a pretty small school with a student to teacher ration around 1-20. If you are struggling with something or need help on anything there is always someone who is willing to help you.

Akron Westfield was a very good school to go to; all the teachers there are good teachers. They help you if you need help; they'll come in early to school if you need extra help. Its not that big of a school so you pretty much are friends with everyone in the school.
