Grades 10-12
College Admissions Counselors Visits begin September 11th throughout November 2025.
We would like to inform and encourage you to sign up for college admissions representative visits available in Naviance. College admissions counselors visit Westwood Regional High School throughout September, October and November to meet and speak with our students.
These visits offer valuable opportunities for students in grades 10–12 to explore potential colleges in a familiar setting. They allow students to learn directly from admissions representatives about academic programs, campus life, and the application process. Attending helps students ask personalized questions, make connections with admissions staff, and begin to envision their post-secondary path—whether they’re just starting to explore or narrowing down their list of schools.
When you attend a college admissions visit at WRHS, we ask that you:
Communicate early with your teacher that you have a visit scheduled for a particular date/time and would like to be excused. Ideally, you should not be missing an assessment to attend a visit.
If you miss a class for a visit, please know that your attendance will be taken during the visit. Failure to take place in the college visit while missing class will result in a “cut” from that class.
Be respectful and ask appropriate questions during the college visit.
Westwood Regional High School's artists stole the show at the Young Expressions Art Exhibit, sponsored by the Art Center of Northern New Jersey. Six talented students showcased their creativity, bringing home a stunning array of awards.
Toma Amirbekova’s creative self-portrait represented us in the Drawing category, while Olivia Russo’s digitally manipulated landscape showcased our work in Photography. Elizabeth Whyard’s acrylic still-life acrylic earned an Honorable Mention in Painting, and Jonas Martinez’s original mixed-media digital drawing secured 2nd Place in Digital Art. Emily Boyce’s block print earned a well-deserved 1st Place in Printmaking, and Isabella Cassai wowed the judges with her innovative mixed-media self-portrait, securing 1st Place BEST IN SHOW.
Congratulations to all these exceptional artists for representing Westwood Regional with such distinction.
