West Springfield High school delivered a classic high school experience. The student government and student population was very good about promoting school spirit and coming together as one for the pride and honor of WSHS. The school had a great sports set up and phenomenal teachers.

It was a good school. And I will be a bit sad to graduate. But the school academic program is decent to say the least.

The only thing I would like to see change is the school lunch needs to be better quality.

My experience is based on four sons who had different personalities and talents and their needs were met and more. One in foreign languages, one in music, one in history and one in drama. It might have helped that my wife and I were actively involved in school activities also.

I was a former student at this school. Teachers are not effective and a lot of them seem inexperienced. They didn't really teach, just handed out packets to do. There were some good teachers, but most of them were mediocre and subpar. Teachers also favored certain students even if they were not wort...
