Lives of Impact Begin at Westridge.
Westridge is a forward-thinking girls' school committed to developing intellectually adventurous thinkers, and courageous, compassionate leaders. For over a century, we have cultivated the extraordinary in every girl by giving them the freedom and support they need to explore, take chances, and grow on their path to success.
vision
Our engaging and challenging curriculum prepares students to continue their education in college and beyond as discerning, motivated learners who are committed to excellence and goodness in everything they do. Essential to this work is the commitment to be a community that reflects and values diversity, respects individual differences, and responds to a changing dynamic world.
A Westridge education offers both a path to self-discovery and personal fulfillment and an awareness of the essential interdependence of all peoples, places, and cultures.
We strive to develop young women whose joy in learning, personal integrity, courage, compassion, and commitment to ethical action and social and environmental responsibility, will lead them to meaningful lives as contributing citizens of the larger world.
We strive to prepare young women to live lives of meaning, contribution, and impact.

DIVERSITY, EQUITY, INCLUSION, AND JUSTICE
Westridge was built on a mission to provide gender equity in education. Today, we draw upon the spirit of our founder Mary Lowther Ranney to expand diversity, equity, inclusion, and justice (DEIJ) on our campus. These essential components of the Westridge program are imperative to the wellness of students in underrepresented populations and central to academic excellence for all Westridge students.
We are actively working to:
Identify and eliminate biases and gaps in our programs and policies.
Make the programmatic changes and do the community-wide education and growth necessary to make Westridge a school where all students, families, and faculty and staff feel they belong and are affirmed, valued, and supported.
Increase diversity of all kinds, especially racial and socioeconomic, because we know that all students benefit social-emotionally and academically from learning in a more diverse environment.
