Westlake High is a private, co-ed boarding school. Education is considered top-notch, and therefore it is very expensive to get into. However, it is not necessarily hard to be accepted as long as you can pay the money. Past grades, school records, etc. are barely looked at - if you can pay enough, you're allowed in. Only a handful of students are allowed in every year with a 'scholarship' - these kids would have to have had superb grades in middle school, have connections within Westlake, or both. But 'scholarship' kids and anyone else who got in by any other way than just paying the fee are basically considered trash by the other students - therefore, most of them choose not to let it be known. Yes, Westlake can afford the best of the best when it comes to teachers, but that doesn't mean the students are excelling as well. To them, the life at Westlake is like a game - a constant fight for popularity and power, and most don't care who gets trampled, as long as they're the 'best'. Let the game begin... z3.invisionfree.com/Westlake_High/index.php
