Message from the Principal
Westmont was named a California Distinguished School in 2004! This is an
honor that could not have happened without the unending support and incredible commitment of our Westmont parents, staff, and students.
Westmont's modernization was completed the 2007-'08 school year. Westmont is
a Title I school with a wonderfully diverse population. We have many special
programs to meet the needs of our students including Early Reading Intervention, Read 180, Read Naturally, Re-Read Partners, Language!, High Point, English Now!, after school Kaleidoscope, after school tutoring, Adult Education to learn English, Art Masters, Sparks Physical Education, Counseling, Music, Study Buddies, and Student Counsel.

Westmont received the "Golden Bell Award" from the California School Boards Association in December 2007. The recognition was in the area of instruction based on Westmont's unique instructional flexible groupings for language arts in grades 1-5. Westmont accesses support personnel to assist in providing language arts instruction based on student needs. This allows for smaller teacher/student ratios which benefits all students but particularly those at-risk. Our test scores demonstrate the success of this instructional approach. Westmont applied for recognition as a California Distinguished School. We hope to hear that we will receive a validation visit in February 2008.
