This is my first year attending Westover High School, but I would say the school gives a lot of opportunities to explore. I would prefer the events and activities to be more organized and structured.

Overall not a bad school. Typical bad students that need guidance and a strong hand. It’s mostly the admin staff. They are rude, pick and chose who to discipline. Harassment is the word. They need to get more teachers willing to teach not just sit in front of a video. It could be a lean on me moment...
