However, the school's performance still lags behind the state averages, indicating room for improvement.

The relatively high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch at West View, ranging from 47.96% to 60.96%, suggests the school serves a population with lower socioeconomic status, which may be a factor in its academic performance.
