As I've gone through high school, I've slowly realized how lucky I was to be going to a school like West. They take high care in their education process, along with adjustments based on student needs. ive received thousands of dollars worth of college credits for hundreds through their SUNY program, which is as big relief on my college funds.

I feel that West Seneca West had a lot to offer for our high school education. The teachers and counselors really cared about how we did in their classes and did as much as possible to help us succeed. West also offered a lot of interesting clubs, sports options, and after school activities. I made a lot of great friends that I will have for life. I really enjoyed my time at West.
