4.0 Senior

The best parts of my experience was my environment, sports, and the people. The worst parts were sometimes the work. I wouldn't want to see anything change.

Being a graduate of West Lowndes is something to hold dear to your heart. There were a lot of ups and downs to the school but overall it was a pretty good experience. The faculty are very encouraging and caring, the food was pretty nice, and the knowledge you received was very rewarding towards later obstacles in life. The school help build character and gave students different opportunities to help one another and learn more about themselves.
