Great School!!! and Ms. Law is excellent teacher... My kid love this school...the school leadership and use academic program...
My child has been going to school here since 2nd grade. I feel as though he/she was not prepared for fourth grade and everything he/she is struggling with this year shld hv been learned last year. The test scores in reading are very poor and math as well.
Westlawn is a very great school my kids love it as well as I do. The teachers are great.Mrs.Cooper is wonderful,my daughter loves her as well as Mrs.Mather and the rest of the staff.
As a mother who has had a child at Westlawn elementary from K-5 thru Fifth grade I would have to agree that Westlawn is a great school. I can also say that each school year has become progressively better as they have sought to find more innovative ways to make sure that no child is left behind resources such as afterschool tutoring, math night, and winning word of the week. There are also many extra curricular activities such as Ballet, Violin Piano, boys and girl scouts to name a few. Though I do feel the principal could work to be more touchable, I do not in any way find her to be incompetent. I have also been happy and confident that each of my child's teachers were committed to her academic success. I find the environment conducive to a positive learning environment.
Westlawn is a wonderful school where students can express themselves in a positive manner. The faculty & staff takes interest in all students' academic success and encourages positive behavior through various means, such as PTA Citizen of the Month, Student Council, Tigerettes (Academic Spirit Squad), TIES (Boys Mentoring Program) and Tiger Lilies (Girls Mentoring Program) Currently, I have two children still attending Westlawn and two other children who graduated from Westlawn. I always felt Westlawn was the best choice for my children's educational foundation. Principal, L. Finley expresses her warm & loving spirit to all her students by encouraging them to read something every night; this include weekends, holidays and spring & summer breaks. There are so many I could name but the list would be entirely too long, therefore, I will say this: 'Keep up the good job Westlawn Tigers and roar once again to AYP success!'
my son's teacher mrs.cheyette is an excellent teacher who has taken extra interest and helped out my son with his learning she is exceptional and is a wonderful kindergarten teacher. the only problem there is the student pick no coordination what so ever and student safety! and the majority of the teachers are very very rude they forget because of our children they have work. and if they really cared they would take better precautions.
The quality of the education my child has been getting here is scary compared to the schools around it. The principal I find neither helpful or competent in her work. She is some of the source to the schools problems. The children here are both unruly and disrespectful to all authority personal. I find no reason to tell people about this school except not to come.
The quality of academic programs is great, there are a variety of extra curricular activities and parent involvement with Westlawn is exceptional. Westlawn even has after school care at the school.
