Reviewed by Former Student on March 22, 2011
Rating: (1 / 5) Flag as inappropriate
Worst school in the area.
The staff is unreliable, unapproachable, and unresponsive. They have had only one decent principal, and a handful of decent teachers in the last decade.
This is from a former student, a sister of a student attending, and a future teacher.
The entire Johnstown school district is corrupt, but West Side is the worst of the worst.
Do not send your children there.
