Horrible! Staff only want to collect their paychecks. They don't care about your child. All the good teachers leave and go work at better schools.

I would not recommend this school it is no good

I attended Westland from 2013 to 2017. As others have mentioned, it's a very diverse school and can seem a bit rough around the edges depending on who you're talking to. Fights did sometimes break out and there were definitely instances of bullying and students showing prejudice towards others. However, with all that being said, Westland can 100% be a great school to attend. There's a myriad of ways for students to get involved, ranging from sports and organizations to afterschool clubs. There are also a handful of fun events that Westland holds such as talent shows, pep rallies, etc. In terms of preparing students for their next step, whether that be a trade, vocation, or college, this school does a decent job. They offer AP/IB courses as well as dual-enrollment and SAT/ACT prep. The district also offers the South-Western Career Academy, which helps prepare students for careers in fields like cyber security, culinary arts, engineering, media, etc. In terms of community, I can't speak for everyone, but I personally was surrounded by a lot of great students who were either just as driven and passionate as me, if not more. However, that brings me to my next point. One thing I did notice while attending was there were mainly two types of students who I'll call group A and group B. The "A" kids were almost all involved in extracurriculars i.e. music, drama club, National Honor Society, sports, etc., and AP/IB courses. People in this group tended to populate the same classrooms, and would only mix with the "B" kids in the more gen ed courses like psychology, Spanish, art, etc. The "B" group contained a lot of students that were equally as talented but either didn't care about school or just didn't want to put in the extra effort to succeed. Depending on which group you fell into your experience as a whole and in the classroom could likely be very different. The final thing I'd like to touch on is staff. The teachers, guidance counselors, etc. I personally interacted with were, for the most part, great. You knew they wanted you to succeed, and many of them would and did go above and beyond for their students. They are 100% one of the reasons I think of Westland so fondly. Again though, a lot of it is just how much you're willing to put into it. If you're willing to work for things and try then this school will meet you in the middle.
