Whether you are returning or joining our school community for the first time, I extend a warm and heartfelt welcome to each one of you.

Our commitment to providing a nurturing and stimulating environment remains steadfast, where each student can thrive and excel in their unique ways.

I am proud to share that Westmont High School continues to excel in numerous areas. We are a National Blue Ribbon award-winning school, a testament to the hard work and dedication of our students, staff, and community. Additionally, we are honored to be recognized as the number one high school in Illinois according to the ISBE index score.

Furthermore, we are thrilled to have the best AP program in the country, providing our students with exceptional opportunities to challenge themselves and succeed academically.

As we embrace this new academic journey, I encourage our students to approach each day with curiosity, determination, and an eagerness to learn. Remember, education is a lifelong process, and each step you take here at Westmont High School will pave the way for your future endeavors.

To our parents and guardians, I extend my gratitude for entrusting us with the education and well-being of your children. We understand the partnership between home and school is vital to the success of our students, and we encourage open communication and active involvement throughout the year.
