(3 / 5) Flag as inappropriate - Westlake has lost it's feeling of security and safeness. Their has been now multiple incidents with children in the school, and both events have to deal with illegal drugs. That's doesn't sound like a place where I would send my kids to school at. Would you? The only good thing there is the teachers, who have dedicated themselves and have overcome all of the problems, even with the illegal drugs.

(5 / 5) Flag as inappropriate - Westlake is an amazing school! The kids are fantastic and the teachers are excellent. Any kid would be lucky to go to that school. Lombard is a great community to bring children up in. It is beautiful and cultural in every way. I hope you consider Westlake to be an amazing middle school for every child, either black, mexican or white.
