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.
The Test Score Rating reflects annual state test results for this school compared with scores statewide.

Attending this school allowed me to really focus on what path I wanted to take after high school . They are BIG on college and post secondary paths . Which is a wonderful thing especially in this generation .

Every single teacher is kind, they care about the student's success. The students themselves, me included really appreciate the teacher's efforts. Western has almost no incidents where students fight. Also, the school's motto to be an A-rated school motivates everyone to try harder. The best part though would be that every single graduate is set up for college by being assigned to apply to colleges and scholarships.
