I received a great education that prepared me for college and I really enjoyed my time there. Everyone was welcoming and friendly, from the students to the staff. The classes were challenging but allowed you to work your best and achieve higher goals. There was always lots of support and the school felt like a big family. I have lots of fond memories and can not wait to go back for my reunions. I highly recommend this school district as it provides exceptional education in all of their schools, from the various elementary to the high school.

So proud to be a product of the Westport Public School District! They helped me adjust after moving from another country's education system. I have participated in clubs, academics and athletics. This school district helped to shape who I am now and I will forever be grateful.
Westport has some of the top public schools in the nation. It is absolutely a rigorous high school and great preparation for post secondary education. The academic opportunities were definitely a wonderful challenge and set me up for success in college. The town itself is exceptionally safe and offers students tremendous opportunities for sports, singing, band, plays, and clubs, both as extracurricular activities associated with the schools and as well in the town.
