GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

We did not feel as though our child was a valued part of the school. Teacher did not provide up to date information about what our child was learning, or how he was progressing. When we contacted the administration about a certain issue, they did not respond for a week. We have recently transferred schools and I've been waiting for Westowne to provide transcripts to our new school for over a month, so I feel as though the front office has communication issues and is rather incompetent.

My son has had excellent teachers for K-2. He’s starting his 3rd grade year. We’ve been happy with his educational experiences. The PTA is active and they help plan additional social activities for families.

We have been thrilled with this school in general, and have been really happy with the special education services our son receives. Our son has attended for 3 years and loves this school. He’s never had a bad teacher, they have all been lovely and helpful every step of the way.
