College and Career Planning
Finding success and fulfillment lie at the heart of the Westmark School mission. In addition to completing the requirements to graduate, Upper School students prepare for life after Westmark with the full support and expert guidance of our faculty and staff.
Whether college-bound, looking to launch a career, or exploring alternative pathways, our Westmark Lions are empowered to practice their independence and envision a future of their own making.
