The school principal oversees the students getting on the bus. My daughter was let to go home with the principals kids friends dad. Peter. The mom called me and let me know. I got there and the dad was in the Jacuzzi between the two five year old girls. Before dinner, I noticed a goose egg bump on her forehead. She said she fell on the stairs at their house. When I brought this to the attention of the school principal I learned this was her child's friends parents and she refused to "mandate" report herself or the family. I talked to the school nurse and she said she would arrange it with the teacher to make sure if there were any additional concussive symptoms, my kid would be sent to the nurse and I would get a phone call. Worried all day, no phone call. I found out there were additional concussive symptoms but the teacher was busy with a science production video in their classroom. There's proof of the goose egg on camera for the district science video. The teacher admitted she was overwhelmed and didn't pay attention to my child's symptoms. I didn't ask her to. I asked her to send her to the nurse and have me get her to take her to the doctor. My child was kidnapped under the principal's direct supervision & neglected under her teachers direct supervision with awareness of medical emergency. I was neglected as a parent and treated like they couldn't bother to do basic tasks for me. The teacher prior to this was exceptional with interesting interactive play. After this happened I was treated like I was in their way.

West Hills has some great teacher and some amazing advanced placement classes. The problem i feel with this school is there athletic department. Especially the mens soccer. If you have a son that hopes to play at West Hills unless you are friends with the coaches or a child of a teacher dont bother having your son try out for soccer. I have been to every game for 2 years. It is very sad to see the same kids sitting on the bench week after week. And it has nothing to do with there experience or the ability. There are kids that have been playing for year, been on club soccer teams, played at other school. It is favoritism. And it is ruining kids self esteem. Kids wonder if they are not good enough or what is wrong with them. Dont put your child thru this sad experience. Sign them up for club or one of the other soccer clubs.
