During my time at Shawnee Mission West, I made some great friends. Some of the people are good, and most of the staff are excellent. However, we do have a problem with fighting and being able to actually travel during passing periods.

Being at SMW has had it's ups and downs. Overall, I like being a student at West because of all the people you meet. I don't like the food, or the unneeded drama.

The school is great for what it is, but it could use more funding and more student outreach programs. students are mostly left high and dry for a lot of things, including college and current schooling. there are good teachers and courses.
