Westborough High School

Schools in Westborough are good, if you are a good student on your own. My kids are above average students, quiet, shy, don't participate in many activities. Basically, they are on their own in learning. Two have some minor needs, which school tries to avoid addressing. If their needs were severe they'd do what they legally have to, if you excel then you are in good shape. My middle of the road kids are left to themselves. I would like to see equal education for all. Working with kids-not working against their parents. Some great teachers! Wish they were all like those. Guidance department has been helpful in college process, not helpful in any other area, especially intermediate and middle school. Would like to see my tax dollars used more efficiently in educating my children. I turned to Assabet for one of my kids and he is excelling.

Westborough High has excellent teachers! I also agree with the earlier post that discipline can be unfair, with different consequences for WHS students involved in the same situation. Hopefully that will change with the (new) administration going forward. I also agree with the comment made that Guidance is the weak area. Lots of work needed there with boundaries and support. Sports and fine arts are off the charts, so if your kids are involved in these extra curricular activities they will do well in Westborough. All 3 elementary schools are good, as well as the 3rd-6th gr school and the middle school (7-8th). The population is very diverse, and throughout all the schools the teachers have placed emphasis on respecting diversity, which is a great thing. The curriculum at the HS is varied, providing classes that fit all types of learners. Excellent college prep classes.

I have a child who is graduating after spending all twelve years in the Westborough Schools. I could not have asked for a better education. Thank you, Westborough!

Westborough High School is a great school. The students are challenged academically, especially in math and science. They have many options for extra-curricular activities. The administration does well overall, but discipline is sometimes unfair... not all students receive the same consequences for similar actions. Most teachers are excellent. Parents are very involved and student achievement is extremely high.

High School offers excellent orientation for parents and teachers. Guidance counselors prepared an excellent program and materials for parents of seniors to better prepare us for the college process. One on one mtgs with Student and Parents.

Guidance department is weak...parents need to help their students in college 'hunt' as the school is oversubscribed.
