West Springfield is a really good school for sports and academics. Our sports teams are pretty good and our overall academics is spot on.

The counselors are terrible, they are constantly messing up schedules and some of them don't even know what kind of credits certain classes are. They will sign kids up for academies, but then not provide transportation even though there is no way a freshman can get themselves to another school on their own. The only main change I wish to see is a much better administration and counselors that know what they are doing.

My experience is based on four sons who had different personalities and talents and their needs were met and more. One in foreign languages, one in music, one in history and one in drama. It might have helped that my wife and I were actively involved in school activities also.
