“The campus itself is old and outdated with fake walls, orange carpet and no windows in the classrooms. However, all of that will change with the implementation of the new Westminster High School Campus in the fall of 2010. Teachers are extremely caring, specially if the student is willing to also put in a great effort. They offer a lot of experience as well as academic knowledge. True, there are some rotten apples, but that will happen in all schools. Overall, amazing teachers, but the student still has to try. Safety? In all of my 4 years going there I always felt like every day there was someone in campus with some kind of weapon. Overall, I didn't feel safe there much. Hwever, I'm sure that it's mostly based on the area in which the school is, not the school itself. Finally, their AVID program is superb. Highly recommended!”

“I went here for two years it is a different kind of school, and the schools test scores aren't great as a whole, but if you are a student willing to learn, you will do good. the teachers are friendly and nice, the kids there are all open and welcoming, the only problem with it are the different groups of people who chose not to do anything which brings the schools stats down lower, but student life is great and it just feels like home”

“This is a great school with excellent teachers. If you come to this to get education, then it is the best school you could find; If you come to be educated, then it's a horrible school. However, education only works when student wanted it.”

“Horrible school. Unneccessary disciplinary rules. Suspend and expell the students they shouldn't and don't discipline the kids who do need it. A lot of troublemakers, and horrible academically.”
