Are Iowa City Schools a little bit harder? by Mohamed Khalifa

The ICCSD, which stands for the Iowa City community school district, is a little harder than schools in other states, according to students that went to other schools that are out of state like: California, Minnesota and Louisiana, one of the people I interviewed was Josh Greene ‘9, who went to school in California, stated that “at West the work is harder, there is a lot more home work than the school I went to in California.”
When this is looked up on in the long run it’s a good thing that west is harder than schools that are out of the state, because it better prepares you for college and the real world right after that. For west being so hard in the class rooms, the school has pretty good statistics. We hear in advisory almost every Thursday, “the majority of the students that graduate form West High either went to 2 year Community college or a 4 year University. When a school is considered hard and has statistics being at that caliber, the school must be doing something right.
