I liked and appreciated the education provided to the students. The teachers were pretty good too. It also felt like the teacher actually cared about the students and were trying to be involved in their students education. I think the only thing that brought the score of West Senior High School down was the student body. As a new student, I felt like I wasn't really accepted or acknowledged in their school. I've felt like that in all three of my years at West Senior High. They were nice though but that's about it.
Traverse City West Senior High has very good academic programs that are rigorous and helpful. West Senior High also has really good arts programs such as theater, art, music, and many others. The sports programs at West Senior High are competitive and fun to be a part of. Many staff members care about their students and are willing to go the extra mile towards their students education and safety.
My experience with West Senior High School has been very positive. The school offers many diverse opportunities to its students from sports, performing arts, and music opportunities to various school clubs to get involved in. There is also a large selection of classes to choose from that cater to many different interests. Overall, the school and its staff do a great job of making the school an amazing learning environment for the students.
