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.

I am a student at Logan going to West and I go there every week cause my Mom works there and the students are great. The Teachers are really nice. West is a powerhouse at basically everything and it a shame they are ranked 30th out of Nebraska Schools. Overall this school is one of the best places to send a Band Player, Athlete, Student, or Singer. 10 out of 10 school

This school has a huge problem with bullying and drama. The Staff does nothing about it as they only care about the students who play sports, and pay little attention to anyone else. Probably the reason why many kids end up transferring to east. My kids no longer attend this school.

Favouritism goes hard here. They care more about their sports and money than they do your feelings. There is always poop on the bathroom walls.
