The Westfield School encourages student participation in extracurricular activities. Clubs meet on a regular basis, and each club is supervised by a faculty/staff advisor. Dues and membership requirements differ per club. Information is made available to all students at the beginning of the school year during a Club Fair.

Westfield Peer Leaders have been creating positive changes since the team was established in 2021 from mentoring younger students to serving as positive role models, tutoring, educating, and engaging in community service projects. Students may apply for the Peer Leadership Team during their junior or senior year. |
