I felt insecure. I was happy to be in school. You had to know people and mingling other peers eas challenging. Others had friends and were involved school. If you didn't talk people would judge you and probably didnt care about you. Don't be sensitive. However staff was very kind. Encouraging peers.

As a student, the teachers are (excuse me for swearing on Frank's name) frankly horrible. They get too comfortable with the students and treat them as friends, not as students. I have pretty good grades and that is only thanks to 3rd party resources. The teachers are absolutely useless here. For safety, I have seen more COMPLETE fights than stopped fights. I have watched people get bruised and beaten and nobody has done anything about it.

This school is extremely disappointing. They show favoritism, ignore bullying, and allow students to bring vapes and drugs without consequences. The principal and staff, especially Mrs. Granado, take no real action. Their negligence has damaged students well-being, including my childrens mental health.

This is a pretty good school. Some teachers are really good but some are very unreasonable and just mean overall. I dont recall the principal ever making students feel welcomed. Every time I hear her in the halls shes always screaming at a lot of kids for absurd reasons of simply just because she can. Most of my teachers teach very well and Im appreciative of that. I see a lot of physical fights at school and a lot of them go unnoticed. Thankfully, a lot of them also do get several punishments but this is just an occurring thing at my school. This is a pretty good school. Thankfully, 7/8 of my teacher are very good and you will usually get those odds.

Principal Granado is an extreme disappointment. After graduating Gunstream with such extremely good leadership, Katies poor attitude and awful demeanor and truly deplorable leadership has been something thats simply hard to stomach. The only thing keeping my review above -47 stars is the exemplary teaching staff who have all but advised that they do not follow the leadership of the woman put at the helm. Its really discouraging and I can not wait for my child to move on to high school, if I do not pull her to home school sooner due to the awful experiences we have had with this principal.

Teachers are fantastic but the new principal is the absolute worst. Takes all the joy out of the day. Almost as if she was never a child or ever experienced fun. Just an angry miserable human.

The no bullying tolerance is actually tolerated more than they want the public to know. Students who steal, or assault other kids are punished with a slap on the wrist.

A great school! The students are very welcoming and the teachers are great help for students. I love this school and the foundation is all great. 10/10 recommended

I am a 6th grader and I really like Wester because the teachers are nice and their food that they have is very awesome.

Posted: October 3, 2022

Wasn't bad overall, class of 26' for graduation. Teachers were pretty nice overall (except for Coach Mills, tennis teacher, absolutely horrifying and never actually teachers anything.) Would recommend for most people unless you hate the smell of sweat during passing period.

Some of the teachers - especially some of the 8th grade teachers are unfair and are really rude. They stress me out so much and they give you way to much pressure to do work. In the8th grade hall, frisco isd is making you only have 4 bathroom passes per class in the whole entire 9 weeks. That may be fine for boys, but girls have periods and it is unfair to the girls because we cant control what time of the month we have it.

Again, if a child is perceived as good, often because of family connections in the district, they receive different treatment.

Posted: March 8, 2018

Maybe it's the high number of newer teachers this year, but I'm extremely disappointed with the talent, professionalism, and competency of the staff. There are a handful of teachers that are good educators; they understand their students and their content. A majority of them are there to dispense content, and if a student needs additional help or doesn't get it, there will be little to no assistance from the teacher. Their "bank" system is really just an opportunity for teachers to punish kids they don't like and reward the already high achievers. I heard a speaker say, if you don't give compliments, you shouldn't offer criticism. Unfortunately, too many teachers are free with the criticism and belittle students, instead of trying to help them become better students and citizens. I'm also amazed at the lack of professionalism in communication. Teachers will often not include a greeting or a closing in their email; which is an indicator of lack of respect. Sometimes, they don't actually include text in their reply, they just send an attachment or forward another email. Overall, I would never recommend this school to anyone.

There is no consistency on understanding what is homework vs what was classwork.

Posted: March 8, 2018

There are a handful of good teachers, but a majority of them are ill-prepared to actually teach. They are very much about dispensing information. Decisions are made for the benefit of the teacher, not for the benefit of the students. Communication is VERY lacking and usually unprofessional.

Posted: March 8, 2018

They have a good philosophy, but it's sad to see a majority of the teachers not demonstrating integrity, compassion, and respect. Also, kids that are perceived as good, or that have family working in the district, receive different treatment than the regular kid.

Posted: March 8, 2018

Again, a small minority of the staff really understands the needs of the child. Which is sad considering the district motto is to know every child by name and need. Too many staff members are under-trained or simply incompetent when it comes to addressing learning differences.

Posted: March 30, 2016

Overall this is an unfriendly school which does not serve its students or families well. Bullying is an issue - but the worst bullying at Wester comes from teachers who are unkind, unhelpful, egotistical and arrogant. With a few wonderful exceptions, the administration and staff are smug and entitled. I have found very few good teachers at this school - don't be fooled, Wester kids' standardized test scores are good because of elementary school preparation and support from home. The classroom teaching is below par.
I would not recommend this school to anyone who is looking for an academic challenge in a healthy community setting.

Overall, it's been a fantastic experience for my daughter. She entered the 8th grade this year, and she can't wait to get to school every morning! The teachers are extremely attentive, and everyone is taught the value of hard work and teamwork, and I'm continuously surprised by how much she has grown as a student and a person. There is no doubt in my mind that she is equipped to tackle any challenges as she graduates next year and moves on to high school and beyond.

I am currently a 7th grade student at Wester and I have to say it is a pretty good school. Nobody really bullies, maybe some people do but it gets taken care of. There are a lot of "dirty" students in the 7th grade, if you know what I mean. All the teachers are nice, except one kind of just slacks off and just tells us to do stuff. My favorite subject is science because of my teacher, Ms. Delozier! She is the nicest teacher and is super nice, and a great teacher! I have a 98 in her class! Also, being a band student, Wester has the best band directors. I play flute and I absolutely love band! The students are kind of stuck-up and they all wear like Uggs, Vans, Pink, and stuff like that so it kind of pressures the people that don't have that expensive stuff that "Oh your not cool unless you have this brand". Overall, I love Wester, and I feel at home here. I would recommend this school to anybody.

It is a nice experience at this school where my son has gained confidence and has made friends from day one. The teachers are great

Posted: June 19, 2013

This was not a great experience. The kids are not friendly at all. The band teacher was terrible and ruined my sons confidence. Add to this getting in and out of there is a nightmare.

I am very pleased with the teachers and staff at Wester Middle. My kids did very well, and with the help of many caring teachers they succeeded nicely. They are now at Centennial High and can't be any happier. Great School.
