This school was amazing for my daughter but not for my son. My daughter was an athlete and had an outgoing personality. My son was not sports activity person and the school did not do a good job connecting to him. Overall it was a good school.

Maine West High School offered a variety of highs and lows although, my experience was more of the lows. With strict security rules that don't make sense and students who don't appreciate how much is being done for them, it's hard to enjoy.

My experience with Maine West High School is great. The teachers are caring and willing to help students in need. Maine West also prioritizes its great athletics teams giving the school a good representation of what Maine West is about. There aren't many negative experiences in school just be your best self and socialize with others, the food only looks a little less appetizing hopefully they can change it.
