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.

Pretty great opportunities for any career path. Teachers are all cool and kind and actually care about you. Students are not that great. Lots of smoking

Westminster High School is a school with a beautiful building and setting. I wish that the counselors were more active in helping students with planning their future though, the guidance that they provide is not very one on one since the school population is large.

Unique grading system. Many extracurricular and college-prep activities. Large athletic and arts departments. Lack of preparation for exams such as SAT.
