      Westwood Upper School Advantage                 

 

Thank you for your interest in The Westwood Upper School, grades 9-12We invite you to take this time to discover the principles that make The Westwood Upper School a unique learning experience. 

 

International Baccalaureate & Montessori: A Powerful Pair

 

The Westwood School is an authorized International Baccalaureate World School offering the IB Middle Years Programme (MYP) grades 7-10 and the IB Diploma Programme (DP) grades 11-12. The world-renowned International Baccalaureate curriculum emphasizes depth and breadth in each subject area as well as interaction between subjects. See Subject Briefs.

 

Westwood offers a unique blend of the IB and the Montessori philosophy. This combination fosters independent thinking and encourages students to develop a sense of their own competence while encouraging academic, social, and intellectual exploration.

 

 

Opportunity: Key to Success

 

Westwood provides the opportunity for self-motivated, independent students to develop their intellect and build character through a balanced and integrated curriculum. See IB Curriculum.

 

Our primary focus is to provide a caring and productive learning environment. Challenging academic and extra-curricular programs encourage students to reach their highest potential and, ultimately, become life-long learners.

 

Intelligent Responsibility: Committed to a Better World

 

Westwood is committed to our students’ awareness of global responsibility as well as their intellectual development. Students probe current political and social scenarios within the framework of international mindedness.

 

Westwood students make a difference in their classroom,

in their world, and in their future.

 

I encourage you to visit our campus and discover the learning adventure that awaits your student.
