Great school, newly constructed and has a good amount of diverrsity for the students. Theres a tennis court 2 gyms, and weight room along with a football/soccer field.
Wauwatosa West High School is a home. Never have I once felt unsafe or unaccepted at this school. The students here and the teachers here are very friendly and are very willing to help anyone in need. Teachers work hard to make sure every student has a chance and are always willing to give students outside time to help them out. Over all, Wauwatosa West High School is an amazing place and I'm proud to call it my school.
Many of the teachers are very uplifting and cheerful and try their hardest to make sure students are receiving the best education possible. I think many of the teaching styles are beneficial and helpful depending on which class. I also think all of the teachers I've had except two in the last three years have been exceptional and are very knowledgeable on the subjects they teach. They are often available after school, before school, and during lunch times to help students. And they never have problems with helping students. Their communication skills are excellent! I've grown to love the staff very much.
