Westlake Middle School Reviews


Posted By: parent Quality Score: 2 2004-12-17 “If your child does not meet the 'standard' that the students set, they are left out and often ridiculed. Disciplinary procedures are almost null. Parents are not held accountable nor are their children. If your child does not dress, act or speak the same vulgar language as the majority of students who do, they are called names pertaining to groups of people who live a different lifestyle! Whitelandia needs busing!” Posted By: parent Quality Score: 3 2004-12-07 “There is an oppressive majority of white Christian/ Catholic heterosexist people at Westlake that makes any students that do not fall within this majority feel uncomfortable if not endangered. Many of the teachers are amazing, on the other hand, and those who were at one time somewhat incensitive have made a noticable change in their behavior and language.” Posted By: parent Quality Score: 2 2008-05-21 “A very, very disappointing school. The percentage of students going to universities is low compared to others in the area and the math/science curriculum is woefully inadequate. So bad that we moved to a different town (Katonah) and are much, much happier for doing so.” Posted By: parent Quality Score: 5 2008-05-04 “My child LOVED west lake! The teachers are great and the principle is, as my child calls him, 'awesome'. I think that the education is just right and the students are wonderful.” Posted By: parent Quality Score: 5 2004-10-07 “I commend the Principal and his staff for their continued enthusiasm. He knows most if not all the kids by their first name and this makes them feel comfortable. The school supports a zero tolerance for bullying and promotes this by awareness programs. The teaching staff is excited and enthusiastic. The school continually strives to have parental involvement. The PTA supports the school and has a fabulous Education Foundation with helps to enrich the school with extras like; smart boards for a more progressive means of teaching.”
