Most teachers are willing to help students after school if they need it. I only wish the school as a whole could be more one on one with students. Not all children learn the same.

Westland is a good school and a bit better than Columbus City schools. Always able to talk to all teachers and staff. Many students are from apartments and constantly moving around. Sports are below adverage and no parent support. No more trouble that any other school. It is what you want to make of your school and life. If you look for trouble anywhere you can find it and if you look to better yourself it can also be found here.

My Daughter has attended this school for 3 1/2 years. She is a honor student and is involved in pretty much everything at the school. Go to a columbus public school and then go to Westland, Then compair the two, because you can't. It's the best school in Columbus of course, but it's not the worst. They do have great teachers if you want to learn, if you are willing to care about your child enought to get involve in what they do at school, then you might not be so fast to said bad things about this school.My daughter has got a great education and leadership at Westland.How many football games have you been too.That's what I thought.Support you school that your so fast to judge.

The main office is not efficient. Annually the office staff remove the non-custodial parent from the record, then that non-custodial parent has to make time to visit school during hours to get added back into system. School gets the poorest rating possible as far as communication with non-custodial parents.

A typical suburban school with a great music program, wonderful teachers, and a moderate sports program. Ap classes are limited by how many students show interest in the class, so not all programs are available.

The school has become an inner city school with inner city problems. ex: low test scores, bullying on campus, and low expectations by teachers, community and students. Overall an average school.

I currently attend Westland. I am an honor student and very involved in the school. I have heard others, who do not attend the school, say that it is bad with drugs and drinking...I disagree. Westland is what you make of it, if you want to suceed, you will, if you slack off and dont care, neither will the teachers. If you show even the slightest sign of wanting to suceed, the teachers will help you in any and every way possible. I love Westland and all the oppertunities it offers. Please dont criticize it until you have witnessed the school in action.

I am a 1997 graduate of Westland and I'll be the first to tell you that it is not by any means the greatest school around. However, the teachers care about their students and will bend over backwards for a student if they show any willingness to try. There have been rumors about it being a 'rough' school but I don't think it is more than any other school. I would recommend Westland to any parent and would be happy to send my children there (when that time would come).
