GreatSchools Rating
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.

My experience with West Point high school was great. They have the best working teachers that will help you in what you need help in.

COVID-19 was the worst. Senoir year and teachers was pretty great. Changes just a better cafeteria menu for students

At West Point High School, it could often feel like exactly that, a school. Often, mornings feel dreadful and the sight of friends is the only alternative for daily caffeine. However, there are two of my teachers who have impacted my college readiness. There is more for me to improve on as a person, still, they have revealed to me the importance and comfortability in asserting my voice because my words are equally important as someone else's.
