About Us
Westlawn Elementary School serves a dynamic community in the Westlawn neighborhood of Falls Church. Our students and families bring a wide variety of socioeconomic, linguistic, and cultural backgrounds that enrich our school and make it a vibrant place to learn and grow.
At Westlawn, teachers, specialists, and coaches work together to nurture every child’s unique strengths and needs. Staff regularly collect and analyze data to guide instruction, while coaching supports empower teachers to elevate their practice and spread best strategies across classrooms.
We are deeply committed to family and community engagement. Families stay connected through newsletters , weekly Community Conversations with the Principal, social media , and the TalkingPoints two-way text messaging service used by all staff. These channels help us advocate for strong home-school partnerships and ensure that families have a voice in their children’s education.
Beyond the classroom, Westlawn students enjoy field trips, in-school experiences, and free or low-cost extracurricular activities made possible through partnerships with community organizations. These opportunities nurture curiosity, empower exploration, and help every child thrive.
