I moved to Westwood High School my freshman year and it was personally one of the hardest challenges I have had to face in my life. Change is not my specialty at all. I was the new girl that everyone would talk about and it fightened me. It soon started to grow on me and everyone ended up being so welcoming and helpful. I never met such amazing people before. The students are awesome, the teachers are knowledgeable and cooperative, and the facility is amazing. They also try and get you involved as much as possible. There personally nothing I would change about this school. I believe that if anyone were to go to Westwood, they would enjoy it as much as I do. This environment has truly changed me into the person I am today!
I went through 7th grade and then I became home schooled, with independent study, taking classes at the nearby college, Western Iowa Tech. I also traveled all around the US learning about different cultures and their histories.
Westwood treats athletes much better than the kids who don't participate. Sports are overly encouraged rather than getting good grades. The school did not prepare students for the real world and lets kids get away with everything.
