(5 / 5) Flag as inappropriate - West Jr is one of the more nicer schools in the district. My son played football there for the past two years. I loved the blance of learning & Fun with this school. The Principal is easy to work with and I have to say my favorite person at this school is the Guard at the front door, Ms Jones! (She really keeps 'em in line)
