1/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThe teachers and faculty seem to dislike the students. There is no student engagement or emotional support. The women in the office are catty and the teachers have no compassion for the students. If they have a student whose parent they disliked in highschool then they take it out on the kid. If the principal and vice principal dislike the parent then watch your kid get punished harsher than other students. Did I mention that this school is ranked in the middle of the state? Average uninspired teachers and a nasty faculty put out dumb students. Welcome to Canton HSParent Review3y ago - Ingersoll Middle School

6/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThis is my sons first year at Westview since we just moved about 4 months ago. He is in 1st grade this year. His teacher and the other staff are absolutely amazing. My son is doing great and he has done a complete 180 behaviorally since Kindergarten. He really likes his teacher and she seems like she really cares about the children and show them respect. She seems to work with my sons strengths and brings to my attention whatever he may need to work more on. She has a great system to give the kids initiative to behave and get their work done. My sons has be excelling since the first week of school. Cant say enough about this school. Very happy my son is in a school that will truly help him to be the best he can be.Parent Review6y ago
