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.

Westlake High School is an amazing school. Although, favoritism is shown a lot; you do receive a wonderful education.

Westlake high school has very hands on teachers and when they say no child left behind they genuinely mean it . The school is great for academics , the only thing i would change is how the athletes have more privileges and get away with more than a regular student .
