Although I entered as a Junior I immediately noticed the differences between my old school and West Hall. The best part of my experience are the teachers I had, who were all very supportive and willing to help me out on anything. One thing I would improve is the way administration handles situations.

Overall, as a senior now attending West Hall High School for 4 years, I can safely say that it is a great and rigorous school and offers variety of courses such courses in career related classes, fine arts, AP/IB programs. The school also upholds cultural diversity within the student and faculty bodies. I would like to see them update all the class rooms to the new technology that some classes have as the facility did get an additional building ti the campus.

White kids hang with the white kids, Mexican...
