The claim that it is always at the top of SAT and ACT scores certainly needs a cite. I did a major edit on this page this morning, but left in that one bit. I'll keep an eye on the page, and if no one sweeps in with a cite in the next couple weeks, I'll remove the claim. I also removed all the superlatives and tried to nail down the section on the Little Hawk a little bit. It would also be great if someone could flesh out the history of the school a little bit. I'm not in IC and thus lack access to relevant resources. For instance, I'm pretty sure that the claim that the school was founded by the WPA is inaccurate (BUILT BY, yes. FOUNDED BY? Doubt it. Don't think the WPA was in the habit of founding schools.) Cassandra8 15:42, 24 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Maybe it's just me, but it seems this article may be somewhat biased towards this school. If it's true, it should be cited. "Always at the top of the SAT and ACT" needs proof. 3l3phant 02:26, 5 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I would agree that "Peacock Terms" are in use, but as a student at Iowa City West High School, it would be inappropriate of me to edit this article. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 216.159.104.202 (talk) 18:45, 12 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Kids, Randy Brown and John Sackett are hardly "nonnotable". 12.217.241.197 01:27, 28 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
