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.

It's not the best school. They don't do that much for seniors. I hear from my friends from other schools how their schools were doing so much for them during senior year or any year honestly. The teachers are pretty great though. The food wasn't that good. The school was pretty gloomy to me.

I'm a freshman and this is the worst school I've been to. The admin doesn't care about anything and lets so many bad things slide unless it's dress code or smoking. This school is terrible

Very bad drug problem tolerated by a culture of denial and dereliction of duty by those “educators” etc. who claim this is a “family problem” not a school one. Drug dealers roam the halls and bathrooms, “family problem”. Kids are high on government property, “family problem”. Kids aren’t learning, “...

Westfield High School is a fantastic school with many opportunities for students outside of sports, and the school harbors intelligent, compassionate teachers. I have taught at the school for almost twenty years, and I am baffled by the reviews stating there is a "drug problem." You are responsible...
