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.

I'm a senior in West Hall High School, also is my first year in this school so is a little bit complicated to talk about it in a big perspective. But what I can say is that the people in this school is amazing, I'm very grateful for the teacher I have this year and also with the people that welcome me in. I'm involved in HoPe Club this year, and it was my best decision to make, there are wonderful people and my teacher is amazing, I love being part of this club. Also I have to say that my teachers are amazing people, they are comprensive, kind and hardworking. West Hall High School is a good school, I feel good when I'm there. I don't have anything bad to say about it since is my first year and last one. I just feel very grateful for having a lovely last year of high school.

I have been at West Hall High School since my freshmen year in 2020. I am currently a senior and taking full-dual enrollment due to lack of higher academic choices.

West Hall High School has been a nice place for me to get to know new people that are frinedly. Most of the teachers I had in my previous years have been really nice to me as well as being good at teaching. In addition that I have met not only teachers or staff members that have been guiding me in life but have also gave me some pieces of advice that I will need in the future.

Graduated 2017. It was an alright experience. If you’re doing bad it can be kind of hard to find a support system there but my biggest issue was diversity, it was a pretty annoying divide between Mexicans and Whites as it’s pretty much two schools in one. White kids hang with the white kids, Mexican...
