[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How is Westfield High School?[/quote] I would like to know as well, looking at houses in that boundary[/quote] It's not Mt. Vernon or Lee bad, but it's not a strong high school. You'd do better to shift your search slightly & get Oakton or Chantilly. [/quote] Could you please elaborate why is it not a strong high school?[/quote] It actually is a strong high school. Just big and somewhat more diverse thanO Oakton and Chantilly, but still AP.[/quote] Which is code for saying that Westfield has a significantly higher % of students who don't identify as white or Asian (37% vs 20% Oakton & 25% Chantilly); higher FARMS % (26% vs 13% & 17%) higher ESL % (9% vs 6% & 5%). It also has lower test scores (SOL pass & SAT) and lower college bound %. It a GS 6 vs GS 8 for Oakton and Chantilly. So, not terrible, but not strong either. [/quote]
