Niles west was a very diverse school with many clubs, activities, and sports to join and many resources to help students. The teachers really care for their students and the deans are always making sure students are on track. It's a great environment for any student to thrive in. I was an athlete at Nile's west and the trainers are amazing people that put their passion into building stronger athletes in athletics and in academics.

Wonderful experience with great faculty. Student safety was a priority. Classes offered had a wide range as well as many many different types of electives. Student involvement was also promoted and was a big thing at the school.

I would most certainly not recommend this school. The principal is not present, does not respond to emails and lacks genuine compassion and concern for her students. Antwan Babakhani is equally unresponsive and when he is responsive, not very helpful. There is ZERO support for the social and emotion...
