The Westtown School Commitment

Dear Friends,

At Westtown School, a diverse community of students, teachers, and staff members are united in support of our mission:

Guided by the essential Quaker calling to seek out and honor that of God in each of us, Westtown School challenges its students to realize their individual gifts while learning and living together in a diverse community. Westtown School inspires and prepares its graduates to be stewards and leaders of a better world.

The success and integrity of our shared mission rests on our community standards. These are described in the Westtown School Employee Handbook and in our handbooks for Lower, Middle, and Upper School students and parents. As a Friends school, we emphasize ethical conduct, respect, compassion, and social justice. Westonians are encouraged to seek guidance about school rules and standards and to bring to light concerns that a violation may have occurred.

• Students and parents should feel comfortable bringing concerns to a teacher, dean, or advisor.
• Employees should feel comfortable bringing concerns to their supervisor or Human Resources.
• Alumni/ae/x and friends of the school should feel comfortable bringing concerns to the appropriate administrative office.

When a face-to-face conversation is not preferable or possible, we encourage you to use this resource, hosted by an independent, third-party hotline provider, EthicsPoint. Reports can be made through Westtown School EthicsPoint site under your name or anonymously, and will be sent to school administrators or independent third parties as appropriate. However you choose to make your concerns known, you have our guarantee that you will be heard.

Remember that in emergencies or where there is an imminent risk of harm, call 911
(followed by a call to Westtown School Security at (610) 399-7555).
