West Seneca West Senior High School
This is a good school if you would like to get into the technology, or the art calsses. If you would like to take culinary classes, you would be saddly mistaken. They are full of nice people, but they lack in the culinary feild. They allow people to take ERIE Boces, which is a vacational school, it has an assortment of classes. you would be very pleased with the people and the staff, they are an amazing bunch of people.
