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.

My overall experience at West Broward High school varies. The learning was okay. Some teachers had great ways of teaching lectures or the way they carried on with the lessons. Although administration meant well they could be very harsh at times and could learn to be a bit nicer with the way they talk to the students.

My experience at West Broward High School was a basic one, it's what to expect when attending a High School. Make new friends, learn, and grow...But this is Florida, I saw a fight a couple of times, and heard some rumors about some. The lesson I learned this is Florida.

When I first started out, I was so scared. But the kids I made friends with really fast, academics were easy (maybe that's me), and I started to love it. My interests were music and theater. I had the biggest passion for both, and it strived me to thinking into my future career, as well made a lot of friends. Sometimes the school makes the students feel lost and it is very hard and strict on you. But I am grateful.
