Plano West Senior High School Reviews


Posted By: parent Quality Score: 5 2007-08-30 “This School is excellent! Located in West Plano one of the best area's in Dallas. Smart students, amazing teachers! Great school!” Posted By: student Quality Score: 5 2009-06-15 “I can proudly say I just graduated from Plano West. My experience in attending Plano schools for the majority of my education has been one-of-a-kind. The studeny body is remarkable -- both inside and outside of the classroom. Being involved is something that every student strives to achieve whether it's being on the prom commitee or participating in DECA competitions or even joining the frisbee club. I guarentee there is a place for everyone, not just the upper-class snobby kids that everyone makes the student body out to be. Aside from the students, the teachers are outstanding. I am completely prepared for college asnd I thank my teachers for that. I cannot imagine where I would be right now if I hadn't attended Plano schools, but I do know that I would not posess some of the wonderful qualities that I have gained by surrounding myself with the wolfpack.” Posted By: student Quality Score: 5 2008-11-02 “I'm current a senior at Plano West, graduating in 2009. I must say, it has been an amazing experience at West. The teachers are excellent and really care, taking their time to get to know their students on a personal level. It's also alot more diverse than people think, not just rich kids. The athletics are also great, as most of the sports are in the state playoffs every year. Overall, I could not imagine myself going anywhere else. It's a great school and a great experiance.” Posted By: parent Quality Score: decline 2008-08-18 “Plano West is about as good as it gets considering it's part of the Texas Education System which ranks nationally as one of the worst systems. The school and teachers offer a rich environment for learning and prepare young men and women will for college or trade positions” Posted By: other Quality Score: 5 2008-07-30 “I am a recently graduated student and by far I had the best luck with great teachers and assistance at Plano West. The principal, Ms. King is incredibly involved in ALL extracurricular events, meaning she goes to all the art student exhibits as well as all the football games. Some people think that West must have only snooty upper crust students, but my experience was exactly the opposite. Just about everybody was smart, talented, motivated and down to earth. I was supposed to go to Plano Senior, but I now could never imagine going anywhere other than West.” Posted By: student Quality Score: decline 2007-08-07 “Plano West is an amazing school. Even with its large number of students the teachers and principals make an effort to get to know each of the students on a personal level.” Posted By: parent Quality Score: 5 2007-06-29 “I have two sons graduate from PWHS. They both graduated with higher than a 3.8 GPA, and one of them played varsity basketball. The academics are great, but the competition is fierce. If you are the best of the best, you will get attention and opportunity. If you are merely good, you will be lost in the shuffle. If I did it over again, I would pick a smaller school district where my children would have more opportunities with less pressure. Since my sons did fine, we stuck with it, but I don't envy the talented children who work hard just to be average in Plano when they could be stand-outs somewhere else.” Posted By: former student Quality Score: 4 2007-03-01 “School has great academics and serious extracurriculars in a variety of areas. Students can be very competitive in just about everything though so some good students get stuck in the average pool. Also, the parents tend to meddle a bit too much. Still the school provides very good college preparatory support to all students from Ivy League to state schools to community college.” Posted By: teacher Quality Score: 4 2005-06-30 “An exceptional school with phenominal resources.”
