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.

Jeff West provided me with a quality education as long as you are willing to apply yourself. There are many great teachers and staff working there to help others along the way.

The faculty is supportive and wants to see you succeed. Ap and college courses are available for getting a head start in college. Overall it was a good experience even though it could add more electives and clubs for students to get involved with.

Jeff West has undergone some changes this year. We now have 8 periods in a day, which are 45 minutes long instead of 7 periods that are 50 minutes. The 5 minutes cut off actually makes a difference, giving us less class time to work on things or for labs in science classes and for tests. Other than that I love the relationships we have with our teachers. They are there for us school related or not. We can go to them for personal issues or for help with school work.
