The academics are very good, especially compared to other high schools in the area. Most students are accepting, and eager to learn, however the "Catholic" aspect is not very prevalent. Many students do not honor their faith, and are not kind. The sports environment is overfunded and overrated. However, I do feel prepared for college so far, thanks to the staff here.

We tried to get to know the local public high school and they reacted in disbelief that we might have questions and might want to meet a teacher or two. Then we called West Catholic. Wha...
