As a current student of West Point High, I can describe it with one word: excellent. Excellent academics, arts, extracurriculars, staff, and athletics. The town is responsive to the school's needs, so if we have a project we want to do, we can ask the town for support. We have the opportunity to learn from teachers who are passionate about what they teach, and we can do it in a pleasant environment. The standards are high at West Point, and the students are often involved in many extracurriculars, learning time management and prioritizing along the way. West Point has excellent chorus and band programs, so if you or your student is musical, West Point is a nurturing environment for them to develop their talents. My family moved to town so my brother and I could attend West Point schools. If you are considering sending your student to West Point, I encourage you to take the next step and contact our guidance counselor.
