Westview High School Reviews
Rating 3.77 out of 5 584 reviews
I really like the school community and majority of the teachers are accommodating to each students circumstances. The best part is that teachers and counselors try to fit and accommodate you to the best of their ability. However, a few things that could improve is using a more centralized system for their study hall period. Additionally, Westview can have better communication with it's staff on information useful to the students. We hear one thing from the teachers and another thing from admin and its hard to discern what will actually happen. Lastly, I wish that they'd make those tough teachers more accommodating to students with different circumstances. A handful of teachers aren't accommodating and it doesn't create a welcoming environment for those students that need such support.
Westview high school is an inspiring community, that motivates students to reach great lengths to become a better student, and being.
Some of my finest experiences include working closely with teachers and peers in the Teaching and Healthcare pathway. I was able to work with preschoolers and other nearby elementary schools near me as a classroom support. An unforgettable opportunity that forever changed my life.
Not having the same opportunities as peers is something Westview strives not to do. However the lack of communication with their students tends to not give students enough information to participate in clubs and sports. There's been a barrier after Covid, the lack of school spirit and push for a closer community.

Very diverse school with generally great academic opportunities and enthusiastic teachers that work very hard to give students a good experience. Lots of AP courses are offered, but it's unfortunately pretty lacking in regard to Computer Science education, at least when I graduated in 2020. As a current Software Engineering/ CS major, I would have definitely liked to have more applicable experience than outdated HTML web design. Some teachers are absolute gems and do a great job of keeping you engaged or otherwise leave a memorable impression, but like all schools experiences can vary between teachers. STEM education is about par for the course overall; there are definitely better schools available if that's your interest.
