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.

At Westpark, I was involved in Student Council from the sixth grade all the way until eighth grade. In the eighth grade, I ran for Student Body President, and won. The clubs at WestPark vary from yearbook to student council to science club. There is a wide variety for all students. The only down side was funding. The school did not have alotof funds to supply some of the clubs with materials.

I attended Westpark from 2007 to 2011. It was an good experience overall. Teachers were nice and helpful. Sometimes they've been rude, but that was occasional. I liked the administration. Overall a good experience.
