10 Reasons Westfield Stands Out

Known for its diverse student body and strong academic programs, Westfield High emphasizes both academic excellence and personal growth. Our school offers a wide range of extracurricular activities, including sports, music, and clubs, to support well-rounded student development. The school is dedicated to fostering a positive learning environment and preparing students for success in high school and beyond.

Unlocking Academic Potential

At Westfield, students can explore their academic interests through an impressive array of over 55 Advanced Placement and Dual Enrollment courses. These challenging opportunities prepare students for college and career success by fostering critical thinking, time management, and a passion for lifelong learning.

Empowering Every Student

Westfield is committed to equity and empowerment through programs like Hispanos Al Camino Exitoso (HACE), Girls Reaching for Academic & Cultural Excellence (GRACE), and the Young Men’s Leadership Group (YMLG). These initiatives provide targeted support, mentorship, and opportunities to ensure every student thrives academically and personally.

Making A Difference

The "Finish Strong" Program engages over 300 seniors annually in meaningful service projects and internships, fostering a sense of responsibility and real-world experience. These efforts allow students to leave a lasting impact on their community while gaining valuable life skills.

Honoring Service

As a Purple Star Recognition School, Westfield proudly supports military families with tailored resources and community initiatives. This commitment ensures a seamless transition for military-connected students while honoring their unique experiences and sacrifices.

Global Perspectives

Westfield’s international exchange programs enable students to broaden their horizons and embrace cultural diversity. By fostering meaningful connections across borders, students gain a global perspective that prepares them for a connected world.

A Warm Welcome

Westfield’s student ambassador program, nominated by Fairfax County, ensures new students feel supported and included from their first day. This welcoming initiative helps build a strong sense of belonging and community for every student.

Diverse Passions

With over 100 clubs and honor societies, Westfield offers endless opportunities for students to explore their interests. From academic competitions to creative pursuits, there’s something for everyone to discover their passion and build lasting friendships.

Investing in the Future

Through the AVID program, Westfield empowers students with skills for academic success and college readiness. The program has led to over $2.5 million in scholarships, paving the way for bright futures.

Celebrating Success 

Westfield recognizes student achievements through initiatives like Bulldogs of the Month, Honor Roll, Attendance, and Improvement awards. These celebrations motivate students to strive for excellence and build a culture of recognition and pride.

Soar to New Heights

Westfield’s innovative Aviation program offers Aircraft Pilot 1 and 2 courses, equipping students with industry knowledge and certifications. This unique pathway prepares aspiring pilots for exciting careers in aviation and beyond.

Westfield High School is more than just a place of learning; it's a community where young minds are nurtured, and spirits are uplifted.
