School is lax on rules and consequences and students have no respect to their superiors. It leads to a chaotic balance and feels like a less safe environment

During my years at West Mesa High, I have learned quite a lot. All of this is due to my specific teachers really caring about my education and wanting me to be successful. Although the school area is not the best, I learned to adapt and make the best out of my 3 years there.

I really enjoy going to West Mesa high School. You can find teachers that really care about you and understand you. You feel right at home when you walk down the hallways and hear people spraying in Spanish. Many nice people that you can call your friends. The worst part is the bathrooms as they where always full of people smoking. The school sometimes was really dirty mostly the bathrooms. And I blame that on your students from lower grades. They really thought it was funny to make the bathrooms ugly and dirty. But I really think that my school tried really hard to have everything for us. They always tried to clean everything as fast as they could. I would like that the school would get more staff to clean the whole school and make it nice and pretty. That what I would change. I would also like to have more school spirit in are students and teachers.

My wife and myself both went to West Mesa Class of 91 and it was a great school back then over crowded bust still a lot of successful adults came out of that area. Now as a father of 3 I have had to make the choices of where to send my children to high school. My oldest now 24 went to St. Pius. grea...
