Weston High School is a great place to be. The teachers love their kids as if they were there own. I wouldn't change anything about it honestly, because I love it the way it is. Graduating from Weston High School makes me wish I valued my 4 years of high school more. I became so close with the teachers, and most of the students. I am a proud Weston High School graduate and alumni.

I like that Weston High School is actively trying to improve, but I'd like to see more opportunities for the students to be present. Such as: more clubs, scholarships, programs for thing other than sports. Art and music for example.
