I was a student at Western Albemarle from 2001-2005. The education I received there went above and beyond what most high schools in the area offered. The teachers were fantastic and the environment was fun.
This High School is the best HS my son(s) have attended. Not only do they offer and exemplify quality teaching, but the safety and friendliness of the students is fantastic. I have visited other Albemarle County high schools and am nearly terrified at the rudeness of the students, the threats on others, and the continued lack of discipline. Western is clearly above all in every category.
We moved to Albemarle County last year and deliberately chose Western based on test scores, web information sites like this one, and personal contact with guidance and staff. We love the school and know we made a great choice. The parents organizations are wonderful and the involvement by nearly all students in clubs and sports adds to the great learning experience. The quality of the teachers is high, with only one exception so far. Dr. Coughlin has been open and receptive to questions and concerns, and Mr. McCurdy (guidance) has been helpful and organized. We would make the same choice again.
Western Albemarle is such a wonderful school. The students love to be there and are proud to call it their second home. The teacher-student relationship is amazing and the principal Dr. Coughlin is very open to both parent's and student's suggestions and concerns. The teachers do a wonderful job which is shown by the above average test scores and the students work hard to keep up with the difficult courses. The high percentage of students involved in sports and clubs is astounding. This school is very close to perfection.
