Welcome to the Class of 2023 and our newest Westfield Bulldogs!
Freshman and New Student Orientation will be held on Friday, August 23, 2019 from 8:00 a.m. to 10:30 a.m. Students will have the opportunity to meet class sponsors, school administrators and our student services team. School counselors and administrators will discuss the transition to high school and achieving academic success; additionally, students will navigate the school, find each class on their schedule, and meet their teachers. SGA, school activities and selected clubs will also make presentations.
We hope your student will join us. We are excited about our incoming Class of 2023! Go Bulldogs!

As reminder, the deadline for any schedule changes was June 14, 2019. There are no schedule changes for electives. The schedule change process for going from an advanced placement or honors class to a standard class will begin on September 23, 2019. If your student would like to move from a standard level to an advanced placement or honors level class, they need to speak with their counselor after September 3, 2019.
Back-to-School Night will begin promptly at 7:00 p.m. Please download or copy your student’s schedule from SIS ParentVue. New families to FCPS will receive a SIS ParentVue activation letter with set up instructions from FCPS. Upon arrival at the school, please report to your student’s first period class. The purpose of Back-to-School Night is for you to meet your student’s teachers, see their classroom, and receive a brief overview of each of their classes. The night is not intended for private conferences or lengthy conversations with teachers about your student. If you would like to have more dialog with an individual teacher, please contact the teacher directly via email or phone.
Prior to the Back-to-School Night program, a meeting for parents of students in the English as a Second Language program (ESOL) are invited to a session starting at 6:30 p.m. in the Lecture Hall. Spanish interpreters will be provided.
