I am currently a graduating senior at this school and i believe that these accusations only apply for the majority and greatly overshadows the minority. What these critics are forgetting is that there is a great Advanced Placement program with teachers that take the time to actually teach the students. It is up to the students to decide whether or not that they would want the education provided for them. I am getting so sick and tired of westbury being associated as 'ghetto,' because people only judge this school through first impressions. So for the future, actually take the time to go inside the school, look at all the classes, then make your judgement.
I attended Westbury and am a fairly recent graduate. The education there is sub-par at best. The staff does a poor job showing that they 'care.' Some teachers are bright spots, but most of the staff is barely adequate, and the administration is horrific. I've never witnessed a school in such constant disarray. I was less prepared for college than any of my friends that attended other schools. The education there is a joke, literally. I had a lower GPA than most of my friends from other schools, but had a higher class rank. In short, Westbury is terrible.
Westbury High School's entire campus is divided into small learning commuities. The school has good leadership. The Auto Tech and Fine Arts Departments are clearly outstanding.
