Obviously, the school by itself is not responsible for teaching our children. I strongly disagree with the parent who refers to Westlake as being horrible. What we must do is encourage our students to be focused,professional and respectful. When students show up to class on time it teaches them decipline and prepares them for the real world when the time comes for them to show up for work or any other important appointment. My daughter is an honor student at Westlake, she also plays the violin in the Westlake orchestra and through the dedication of several of her teachers she had an opportunity to play at the Governor's mansion, and for Mrs. Clinton during the elections as well as being given the opportunity to witness history in the making, by attending the Presidential enauguration. All of our schools can be excellent schools if parents participate more rather than complain and place blame on our teachers.

This school is horrible. Please do not go to Westlake! It is a very bad school overall! PLEASE take my word. The teachers cannot teach at all and do nto really want to listen to the parents. If student are late to class, they will let a gate down to blick them from going to class. What kind of stuff is that?

without any supervision at all. It doesn't matter what time of day it is. This is causing the school to look as if the students are in control. They are allowed to be on the internet at any time, facebook and any other site they wish using all type of language.
