It is horrible. They poorly prep you for the future. Yes if you plan of staying in BFE martin tn all your life then you will probably be fine. If you want to make something of yourself and move you will see just how hard it is to catch up with the rest of the country. My parents moved me to martin from chicago and i couldnt wait to leave the place the second i graduated, bad thing is my education i received from westview made it very hard to catch up. Luckily i worked hard and did it and WILL NEVER GO BACK.

Westview has very few things going for it. Cheerleading is one of them, but if you aren't a cheerleader or aren't related to one, then you get treated poorly by the school leadership. Almost every single teacher plays favorites at least some time during the year especially the vice principal. The pre-calulus and calculus teacher is a great teacher, but is a dictator in their class room. The math 4 teacher has to constantly get help from their students on homework problems. The courses are challenging and educational, but the projects for some classes are a bit excessive since every teacher gives you them all at once.

Former student. The three stars are all for the english, history, and HOSA teachers at this school. Science and math are mostly a joke here - as of my graduation, physics wasn't even a requirement, which is absolutely absurd. Most math teachers couldn't care less about what they're doing, and the chemistry teachers have a very limited understanding of the subject matter and as a result are not good and conveying it. The only good/challenging bio teachers have all left, and again, NO PHYSICS. I had quite a few friends who wanted to major in something science related in college and watched nearly all of them struggle or change majors. Even the ones that were successful pulled frequent all-nighters in the early days just to "catch up." That being said, the teachers in the threee areas I gave stars to are for the most part exceptional, and standardized test scores reflect that.
