Summary

Westlake Hills Elementary is a well-regarded public school serving approximately 375 students in grades K-5 within the Conejo Valley Unified district in Westlake Village, consistently earning high statewide rankings for its strong academic performance.

The school stands out for its effective teaching, with student proficiency in English and Math significantly exceeding both district and state averages, and it shows particular strength in supporting male students, Hispanic students, and English Learners. A major positive sign is the school's very low chronic absenteeism rate of 6.2%, which is half the district average and indicates a strong culture of attendance and engagement. It's important for parents to know that while Westlake Hills Elementary is a top performer in its own district, it is part of a district with wide performance gaps; for example, it dramatically outperforms nearby schools like Glenwood Elementary and Conejo Academy, even though those schools receive more funding per student.

When compared to the highest-performing schools in neighboring districts, such as Meadows Arts and Technology Elementary or Red Oak Elementary, Westlake Hills has room to grow, particularly in science instruction. The school's statewide ranking has gradually declined from its peak a decade ago, though it remains in the top quartile. Overall, Westlake Hills Elementary represents a high-quality, consistent choice that successfully combines community support, effective teaching, and a positive school culture.

Wednesday, October 25, 2017

My two children attended this school. One from first grade and the second from third grade till fifth grade both. They both were in a private school before I moved them to Westlake Hills. The academic level and overall care, and support that they received at this school is outstanding and even better than the private school they were . I am very happy for the decision I took to move my children to this school that I highly recommend. Close Quote
