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.

There are a few teachers in the school who go above and beyond for the students. Most teachers are there for a paycheck. The administration is laughable at best. I wouldn’t recommend WMS to anyone.

Westside is the BEST side !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! They have a great staff. They also have a program for the disabled kids and that is very important for some parent. They raise money for a child that has been sick and hasn't been able to come to school. WMS is a really great school !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
