I think West St. John High School is a great school. Certain things could be betta. Like, the band. They can play awesome, the only problem is certain kids won't listen. Is this the type of band we need. I am currently attending West St. John, and I also play in the band. Certain things need to change..

This school is a well-kept secret waiting to explode! The level of technology available to the students is on par with most 21st century schools in the country. The teachers (including myself) spend hours working to raise the level of achievement of ALL students. The administration spends double the time providing for teachers and students; not to mention they are fair and accurate in their disciplining. They care about the whole child, not just their education, therefore there is a constant intervening of bad behavior. There is a lack of parental involvement, but with everyone else doing their jobs and students arriving to class, I feel it's safe to say: If parents don't want to be there, or can't be there, then it's OK. This school is well on its way to success. Step by step.

I am a student at WSJH and I think that the school is a very good educating facility. I scored basic on all of the subjects on the LEAP 21 test and I owe it all to the teachers. I am also a part of the West St. John High School Marching Band, which is the best band in the parish. Our athletic team is the best in the state, winning the 2A state championship and getting to play in the Superdome. Our basketball team is not doing so bad theirselves. The level of parent involvement could be better.
