I only attended for my freshman year before transferring to online school because of Covid-19. The school was way to overpopulated and the hall ways were always crowded. There were fights every other day, the schools overall safety was miniscule. The only good part were the teachers who seemed to be the brightness to everyone's day.

So this is only my 2nd week (7th day) here at Westland. My previous school was Dublin Scioto High School and there teaching system was much easier. So this school is very different and will take a lot of adjusting to. But I would say that the advisors and counselors are doing a great job at aiding, guiding, and supporting me in everything.

My best experience is getting accepted into the Career academy and playing soccer. My worst experience is the constant coach turnover and the lack of care for female sports. I would like the counselors to help more prepare students for the cost of college especially ones that will not qualify for much financial aid.

Fights did sometimes break out and there were definitely instances of bullying and students showing prejudice towards others. Howe...

I’ve witnessed the Westland area of the district deteriorate, I’m a Westlan...

Attended (2015-2019). While I had some awesome experiences,enjoyed the diversity,and met some genuinely amazing teachers I was disillusioned by general classes that were boring and unfocused, an administration that failed to take responsibility, and a lack of school spirit and academic pride.

This school is a disgrace. The students dont have any respect what so ever. I feel like they dont even know the definition of respect. I attend this school but after only being there for 5 months, I plan on going back to my old high school. There is fights every single day, even when the staff threa...
