What can be

At Westchester, personal growth is the goal. We’re a PK-12 independent school of deep thinkers and risk-takers who work together to explore and make connections. When you love to learn, anything is possible.

We Love
To Learn

Challenge yourself to see things differently.

Westchester creates the best possible foundation for students to flourish. Our balanced approach to education develops well-rounded students who strive to be their best morally, academically, artistically and athletically.

Academics

Guided by exceptional faculty, students pursue challenging academic coursework in a uniquely supportive environment.

College Guidance

College guidance begins in the ninth grade, and students and families receive personalized support through the full college search and admissions process.

The Arts

Opportunities abound for classes and private lessons in instrumental and vocal music, visual arts, and theatre during the school day and through extracurricular programming.

Athletics

Westchester develops both the skills and character of student-athletes. With 10 sports offered at the Middle School, JV and/or Varsity levels, Wildcats build sportsmanship, respect, teamwork, and work ethic to pursue excellence in all they do on and off the field.

STEAM

From the early years through graduation, we teach students how to ask questions and find solutions. Science, technology, engineering, art and mathematics (STEAM) concepts and approaches are integrated across the curriculum and students are taught to approach problem-solving through design thinking. Extracurricular offerings include Robotics, Odyssey of the Mind, and our arts programming.

Community Impact

Every connection our students make inside our school community and in the surrounding region shapes who they become. These connections are forged in programs like CARES Crews, service learning and advisory. Students are paired with faculty and students of other grade levels for mentorship and fellowship opportunities, and they join together to support local community organizations with service projects throughout the year.

Wellness

Westchester is know for its joyful, nurturing school environment. Now, we aspire to be a leader in school health and wellness through educational programming and resources to support parents, faculty and students.
