I have had the honor of spending my childhood attending the schools of the Westwood Regional School District. I feel that the schools that compose this district teacher their student very well since my friends and I have become very knowledgeable about many subjects. They also offer a variety of classes within the schools to help students branch out and discover their interests, ultimately, helping them get an idea of what they want to do in the future. Furthermore, there are many programs and extracurricular activities that are provided to the students, giving them a glimpse of certain fields of study. Overall, I believe it does a great job of preparing students for the future.

Westwood HS is where I learned to learn. I have a 504 and test terribly. I'm a hard working student, but I struggle, especially with tests. They make me very anxious. My accommodations include extended time on tests and my teachers have provided me that time at every level. They have also built up my confidence and expect me to advocate for myself, which is a life lesson I will take with me as I continue my education. I have many strengths that I found with the help of teachers who care about my success more than they care about test scores and checking off agenda boxes. I've been lucky to be part of the Westwood culture where "Excellence in education" isn't just our tagline, but a tangable way of teaching and learning.
I liked some of the teachers and guidance counselors because they seem to really care about their students. I did not like some of their rules. For example, seniors who parked in the parking lots had to walk all the way to the front door because all the other doors were locked which was very time consuming and also difficult when the weather was poor. They did that for security reasons but really, a harmful person can still get into the building through the front door so I felt like we should have been given a pass or key to get in any door of our choice.
