Our Philosophy

The mission of The West Hill School is the education, guidance and nurturing of preschool children in a coeducational environment. Housed in a unique facility constructed specifically for use by young children, a carefully designed program with age appropriate activities challenges the intellect and stimulates creativity. Learning through a well-planned balance of play and formalized instruction, the children are able to explore and satisfy their curiosities while developing a fund of knowledge and socialization skills. An emphasis on thoughtfulness of others fosters and provides the foundation necessary for building successful interpersonal relationships.

The West Hill experience is one in which students are encouraged to practice self-discipline and assimilate the skills of careful listening, focused observation and independent thinking. It is our goal that each West Hill student will progress to kindergarten with self-confidence, curiosity, joy of discovery, pride in accomplishment and a sense of community.
