West Johnston is a great school. The teachers individually are all great and I have always seemed to get a lot out of my teachers. Safety has improved a lot and the administration has become more proactive over the years. Only negative thing is some policies like unreasonable dress code when it comes to female short lengths and having to wait outside of the school until 7:05am before going in when the bell rings at 7:15am.

The principle treats the students and parents like elementary school kids. Understandably because that is her background. She is teaching the students to be cattle and sheep instead of strong Individuals.
