Westport Heights Elementary School

A Member of Our CommunityA neighborhood, a village, a community, contributes to a person's identity. And when a person is young, their school is among the first institutions outside the home to provide community, stability, experience, and a sense of belonging. Westport Heights Elementary School gives our students the opportunity to channel their energies in diverse ways, through the creative expression of an active Drama Club and the early exposure to technology through hands-on experience in the classroom with iPads.Caring teachers who take the time to connect and interact with parents and who welcome parent involvement, as well as independently seek out enrichment opportunities for their students are a core, essential element to making Westport Heights a wonderful school. It is the teachers who not only research and apply for an array of field trips, but also bring Spanish Language Club, Book Club, even a Knitting Circle to add depth and culture to the school, and students get to experiment and expand their minds as well as their physical capabilities.Westport Heights Elementary School is fortunate to be located close to an international airport and businesses that are highly diverse, and is therefore a multicultural hub in the neighborhood. This makes it even more a place of opportunity; a springboard for all children to visualize their future, because they have a tight-knit support system in their school to encourage them and give them the confidence they need to succeed in the world.

If you want to see learning at its best come to Westport Heights.Great teachers and principal.

My son attends Westport Height and I think he is making outstanding progress. I have been a teacher for 16 years (at a different school). As such, I feel that I thoroughly know what it's like as a both a parent and a teacher in an elementary classroom. My son is excited about using his iPad in the classroom, sharing his science project with his peers, and even dancing during the cultural celebration assembly. My husband and I know that our young learner is having a great learning experience and that's exactly what we wanted. I am so glad that we took the time to get to know the teachers, staff and families for ourselves. Otherwise, we would have missed out on this great experience for our son.

It's an excellent school. Lots of incentives to perform. The teachers are excellent and try to understand the children's needs. The Star afterschool program is great at Westport as well. They support the parents by trying to help the children with their homework. Our API score is 891. I am happy tor report my child is doing great here.
