I am an incoming Sophomore and this will be my second year at Westover. This school is a really great place to do things that interest you while you make good friends along the way. This school is special because it creates an authentic sense of inclusion for everyone.

As the parent of a boarder I was a little hesitant on how my introvert daughter would do away from home in a place where she knew no one. Now my daughter is going into her sophomore year at Westover and I couldn't be more thankful for the positive impact, growth and changes that are clearly visible when she talks about the place that she now calls "home-away-from-home." I also love how prompt the teachers and staff are to reply to my emails and thoroughly share how my daughter was doing.

My daughter received a stellar education at Westover. She was well prepared for her undergraduate studies, went on to receive a masters degree, and is currently an entrepreneur who owns her own business. We're so grateful to Westover for all the many gifts she received in her time tbere.
