Upper School
A good education not only supports your academic growth and achievement, it also puts you on a path of self-discovery, of finding your passions and purpose. It prepares you for all the wonderful possibilities of the future.
Along with our academically challenging courses at Westtown, you also have opportunities to become a leader in the community, to participate in service and travel, and to make a difference in the world. You will also have a wide range of options outside the academic day to fuel your passion while having fun — a variety of clubs, affinity groups, athletic teams, performing arts opportunities, and outdoor education opportunities are available to you.
The joy of community is apparent the moment you come to our campus. Cultivating a healthy, inclusive, and welcoming community is paramount at Westtown and we invite you to visit and explore!
