With one main building that houses all dorm rooms and day student lounges of the 200 students, community life is integral at Westover. The Westover community is diverse, with 20% of students coming from minority backgrounds, and 19% representing 17 countries. Surrounding the central campus are playing fields, tennis courts, a pond, and walking and cross-country trails in woods extending over 130 acres. Students regularly join with the faculty to consult on recommendations regarding the academic program, activities, and school life. Dorm parents live on corridor, and they, together with faculty members, share with students in a rich extracurricular program.
Located in Middlebury CT, Westover is only a short distance from New York City and Boston. Our girls travel to both of these cities for both their studies and recreation. In addition to these trips Westover offers a number of co-ed events on the weekends such as dances, movie nights, and volunteer events. Finally, there are also a number of chaperoned trips to local stores, theaters, and restaurants.
