Thorough out my years at West Nassau, there have been many great teacher and staff member that have provided excellent help where needed. though you can tell that some don't get paid as much as they deserve. I feel as though the stipend that teachers get for running clubs should increase as the number of clubs they run increases. Many of the teachers run about 2-3 clubs and are doing the work of 8 people.

I enjoyed this school. For all the people who complain you need to be more in control of your education. It is a small time school with little bullying. If you think there are a lot of drugs and profanity go to a duval school. For the person who said it does not prepare you for the real world but th...
