We achieve this by fostering critical and creative thinking and collaborative problem solving through a robust curriculum delivered by engaging and dedicated educators. We are committed to maintaining an environment that supports inquiry and academic excellence, emotional and physical well-being, appreciation of the arts and diverse cultures, integrity and ethical behavior. Teachers and administrators work to incorporate the Westport 2025 goals of critical thinking, collaboration, perseverance, and global thinking into their lesson design.
