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.

The new principal, Echele May, is a fantastic leader at Drexel. She is intelligent, supportive and empathetic. She creates a climate in which the children are supported academically, socially, and emotionally.

The Principal of this school Dr. Wanda Toledo is simply excellent!. She is a great fit and always reaches out to parents if any issues arise. In my opinion, Dr. Toledo is an asset to the Westbury School district.
