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.

I liked how small the school is compared to others in vigo county. I also liked how close everyone in the school was with each other. People we able to know everyone within the school and that makes it easy in my opinion to be able to speak out in class and voice my opinion. West Vigo strives to make sure everyone's needs are met and i'm glad i was apart of such a great high school.

West vigo is such a tight knit school and everyone is like family but a lot of the teachers have a tendency to not listen and see what the true meaning behind that misbehavior really is. The second thing is the food, I know school food is not going to ever taste like a five star meal but some of the things fed to us should never be eaten.
