Message from the Principal

Dear Westwood Families,

September is in full swing, and it’s been wonderful to see our students engaged in learning, celebrations, and activities across the school. Thank you for your continued partnership in making these moments possible. At Westwood, our vision—One Team. One Dream. One Westwood.—guides everything we do. Together, we are building a school community where every child feels supported, valued, and inspired to succeed.
