3/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThis school is very old and in need of repair including no air conditioning- which causes a huge problem at the end of the year on the third floor when students are trying to concentrate on taking their final exams! The principal is lacking the skills needed to be an effective leader. Some of the teachers are very good and go the extra mile for ALL of their students, while the majority set a bad example, do not care to put in extra effort for the kids that need it, and the teachers and principal do not work well together. (The school does not even have a fax machine- if that says something.) I believe in the Scranton area high school students can choose whether to attend West Scranton High o Scranton High. I would choose Scranton High for sure.Parent Review11y ago - West Scranton Intrmd School

4/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageI am currently an 8th grade student at West Scranton Intermediate, and though my time there is coming to an end, I have to say, I will not miss it. The Principle and Vice Principle have no clue as to what really goes on at West Intermediate. Many students are bullied. Many teachers bully students. I'm in the Phi House part of the school, and the teachers are the worst I have ever had as a student. Most of them are difficult to work with and overall aren't good at what they do. I'm having a very difficult time this year with the teachers. They judge students and ridicule them. They very quick to act and do not take time to assess a situation. I've been very disappointed with my time at West Intermediate, I would recommend not sending your child there, to a parent. They will struggle with both teachers and students. It will be a difficult three years and I'm glad mine is coming to an end.Other Review11y ago
