I love the teachers there all of them are there for the students and willing to help with anything. The kids there are very nice and welcoming. Something I would like to change is that even though the teachers try to help its really hard to get help with any sort of harassment.

West Hills is a good school, but I does lack in many areas. It isn't as diverse as other schools on the Salt Lake area, therefore making students as well as the teachers more ignorant towards other races. The school has given opportunities to get ahead, but dont in force the help of teachers to get the students there. Even though you're allowed to advance to a higher classes it still doesn't provide as many and encouraging classes and support as I've seen in Granite school district. West Hills is a decent school, I just see it as another place that will take me to somewhere I want to be. Personally I don't proudly say I attend/attended it nor will I chose to return if I had a choice.

I think this school could be a little bit better, but overall the teachers are nice and the school in the inside is clean, some problems are there's no windows, lots of fights break out and students smell bad. Some good things are they have good teachers, clean bathrooms that provide sanitary items...

West Hills is a terrible school! Fights break out multiple times a week, weapons are being brought, drugs are being used. West Hills is NOT clean. Their food is not good, people are VERYYY disrespectful and Judgy. Cussing is used every second of every day. Would not recommend this school.
