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.

Weston High School has a wonderful variety of courses, clubs and sports. The teachers are dedicated to their students!

I have truly enjoyed my two and a half years at Weston High School so far. The teacher for each class are amazing and are the ones responsable for making me love Sciance and Math classes. While I was interested in math and science before the teachers and the helpful resources made me love these two subjects specifically and have even made me question if I know want to become a biologist. The food is great and I enjoy eating with friends everyday because the school dynamic allows for you to make friends easily. I haven't experienced any other high school but at Weston it feels like home and I feel truly lucky to be there.

It doesn't feel like a welcoming community and the teachers don't actually care about the students. The administration only looks out for themselves. The nurse is rarely there even though there should always be a nurse in case anything happens. Mental illness is a joke here. Guidance counselors are also rarely available and unable to actually help most of the time.

This school was also effective in swiftly evacuating us from school when there was an unsubstantiated bomb threat on our school. I’ve met great friends at this school and have...

The team that gets the best players always wins!I know teachers in very unprivileged schools : kids don’t have food for breakfast for example. How to teach kids whose basic needs have not been met? Weston is completely different. Students come from very nurturing homes, tutoring is offered at the fi...
