Disabled kids are allowed to beat on fellow gen ed classmates and the principal won't do anything about it. The teachers literally can't do anything due to "steps in the process" my young child was scared to go to school because the mean girl hits him every day. I hate hearing,"why does she hit me? Why is it ok for her to hit? Girls will make horrible false accusations towards other students and not get reprimanded. Students self harm and when the school is informed with information the principles response is simply,"oh here we go, we dont need that. But that's something the vice principal handles." Bullying is the norm. I grew up here, went to this school and I am embarrassed to have my children go here. My kids mental health has declined since starting Carlton Hills. If you care about your kids mental health don't bring them here, but if all you care about are grades, the go ahead. There are a few star teachers that give this jail some light.

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.
