Welcome to Westlake Academy!

Westlake Academy is a place where curiosity is encouraged, character is cultivated, and excellence is expected. As one of only 13 International Baccalaureate (IB) Continuum Schools in Texas, we offer a rare and rigorous educational experience that spans Kindergarten through Grade 12—providing students with a seamless journey from their first day on campus to graduation.

Our single-campus design allows every student to be part of one connected community. Younger learners are inspired by the accomplishments of older students, while older students take pride in mentoring and modeling leadership for those who follow. These relationships—built over years of shared experiences—help ensure every student is known, supported, and challenged to reach their full potential.

Through the IB’s Primary Years, Middle Years, and Diploma Programmes, students are immersed in a curriculum that balances academic depth with creativity, collaboration, and global awareness. Along the way, they develop the skills, mindset, and resilience to Forge Ahead—embracing challenges, seeking solutions, and confidently stepping into an ever-changing world.

Our graduates leave Westlake Academy prepared to excel at the next level—whether that’s university, professional pursuits, or service to their community. More importantly, they leave with a sense of responsibility, integrity, and the drive to make a positive impact wherever they go.

We invite you to explore Westlake Academy and envision your child thriving in an environment that values both achievement and personal growth. Here, learning is not just about the years spent in school—it’s about building a foundation for a lifetime of leadership, service, and discovery. Together, we Forge Ahead—one student at a time.
