Run! Far away. This is not a gifted and talented school. They do not require testing to get in as most gifted and talented schools do. This is a special education school.

They provide a holistic approach to learning in a small class room environment. There is an opportunity for better guidance and preparation for senior students.
4/9/2017
As one of the nine students to be in Westgate's first graduating class, the best word I could use to describe my experience is 'unique.' Westgate is a non-traditional school for non-traditional students. I myself would have had a lot harder time if I had spent my middle and high school years in a traditional school. My time was by no means perfect, but its gotten me closer towards my life goals then I think any other school would have been able to.

Most schools just have office staff that can give medication but don't actually have a nurse. This makes all...

This has been the worst charter school experience I’ve had for my child. The principal and school nurse showed no concern for student safety or wellbeing. When my child sustained a head injury, they only sent an email—no phone call—while my child sat for over three hours with what turned out to be a...

We have had an extremely disappointing experience at Westgate. We found it unwelcoming, we experienced bullying, teachers that played favorites, teachers that didn’t have a mastery in the subject matter they were teaching, as well as multiple substitute teachers in a year. We found the leadership te...

I am so proud to work at Westgate! This is my educational home. The mission is what I believe about kids and about school. I believe that kids are whole human beings! I believe all kids can learn. I believe that kids need recess! I believe that learning should be rigorous and fun! I believe service...
