Open Quote Westlake Middle School in Humble, Texas is the worst administration I've ever encountered! No wonder they are at the bottom of the list as far as academics and statistics government ratings. The staff at this ISD is horrible from the head principal straight up and down to whomever at that entry window when you enter the building. They need to start all over and hire all new staff. And can somebody tell them to at least smile or at least fake it. They don't even recognize the students by greeting them in a friendly way. No one smiles and they walk around as if a stick is stuck far up their behinds! I guess everyone wakes up on the wrong side of the bed everyday! This certainly is not my type of environment. If I would had known this school was this pitiful I never would had picked to reside in this area. Humble ISD I guess you will never be at the top at least not in my books.
And what is up with trying to get your child in the school. It took forever to get my child in that funky school with the crazy different policies they have. It is not all that at all.
Westlake Middle School, look in the mirror and fix yourself and your cult of a staff because You Suck!!!
-Zero stars for me!! Close Quote
