I have had an overall positive experience at West. The majority of teachers are kind, caring, and easy to connect with. The students at my school are usually quite friendly, fun, and focused so the school culture is pretty positive. Although I do wish that some courses were made to be more engaging.

West Jessamine High School is one family of many parts. There are basic cliques, however we are a united school. Though we struggle with diversity, we embrace community. The best part of West Jessamine is our spirit and passion for bettering our school. I would love to see change amongst our school culture. We are so united that we choose to eliminate differences. I want to see a wider range of people to be accepted and embraced.

This school rides on the strength of its students. There is really bad administration, no teacher accountability, poor communication, no desire to work with parents, limited choices for students because of a five period day that they have to fill with required classes, etc. The strength of the schoo...
