Westridge offers a strong social-emotional curriculum that is implemented by experienced and talented school leaders. The school works hard to practice their commitment to cultivating confident and intellectually curious girls!

I'll start off by saying, my worst experience is probably the parking when it comes down to an event.I don't feel like there's enough parking for families at the school. The best experience I had at westridge is the community. The faculty and staff in the safety team. I feel the staff are accommodating. The faculty are our very hands-on and their communication is very effective. I feel like a lot of the teachers. There are polite and also help out.My daughter has never felt like she could not go to her teachers and ask a question that did not get answered immediately. Whether it's sports or academics, I feel like coaches and teachers are very similar. And quick, two help out any situation and make you feel comfortable that you're goes to Westridge.

I left Westridge a year and a half ago. The overwhelming workload and competitive environment caused me and a large majority of my classmates (from conversations I've overheard) to develop depression. At one point, it got so bad I was put into a partial hospitalization program. Literally all of my c...

Worst experience ever. My girl deteriorated on all levels. They didn’t even care to let us know. It seems that only white girls are entities for good mentorship and care in that school.
