GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

The most enjoyable classes found at Westland are found in the arts department. Some teachers do give excessive work considering the material they teach. School spirit is great, there are many events for students wanting to participate. Staff are usually very kind and the programs offered at the school help with preparing for college. Overall this school is fine.
