great school. outstanding education and many chanced to succeed by having a wide array of classes in every sunject.
My son attends this school. He gets all the one on one attention he could need. I am very happy with the teachers.
This school is horrible. It has more students than it can handle. This causes over crowding and confusion.
I love my school. But, there really is no reward for taking honors or AP classes other than your college transcripts, because there is not GPA balancing-- if you get all A's in disgustingly easy classes, you have a higher GPA than someone who got six A's and one B in a schedule which has three AP classes and two honors classes. But, the quality of education and the teachers are really good.
I have had three children pass through Central. Each received an outstanding education. They were extremely well prepared for college, where they excelled. Teachers at Central were willing to give extra instruction to students who asked for help, even if it went beyond their contracted time. The extra-curricular programs need some help, but I'd much rather see the tax dollars being spent on academics than sports.
my second son is graduating in 05/08 and has also been accepted into Wisc. Madison. Top notch caring teachers and very opportunistic AP program rewards students willing to buy into the program. The academics, athletics, and technical programs are all top notch and merit an excellent rating. Two happy parents.
Westosha Central offers so much for a student to really grow and excell with. I believe it offers some of the best oppurtunties for those students going in any direction. I feel very safe, comfortable, and very happy going to Central.
