The Westwood School 西林學校 (德州 TX)

Features

Westwood offers a unique blend of the International Baccalaureate and the Montessori philosophy. This combination fosters independent thinking and encourages students to develop a sense of their own competence while encouraging academic, social, and intellectual exploration.

 

Westwood provides the opportunity for self-motivated, independent students to develop intellect and build character through a balanced and integrated curriculum.

Westwood is also committed to our students’ awareness of global responsibility as well as their intellectual development. Students probe current political and social scenarios within the framework of international mindedness.
