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.

Great school. We had one kid with an IEP, who was well looked after and we saw significant improvement. The other kid is finishing up and has had so many great teachers who really care. The PTO is amazing too!

My boy enjoyed attending West El. He has made friends as well as much progress. The teachers are warm, caring and welcoming. We are looking forward to sending our second one there!
