Maine West has nothing but great memories for me. I tested ahead of my class when I entered the school (due to going to a local Lutheran school that was very academic). Not only was Maine West comparable it offered AP classes for students, tutoring, and their Concert Choir program was the best. All 3 Maine Township High School are terrific!
