Oh Westwood school our home away from home,

Each and every day come and smile a long.

Shoulder to shoulder together we are here,

To learn, to grow, and to celebrate with cheer!

Houra pour Westwood, Hourra pour les amis,

Donnez nous la main en disant merci.

Oh westwood school where we strive to do our best,

With pride and joy we welcome every guest.

Join with us as we work and sing and play

and for our mascot Westy we shout a bit "Hurrah!"

Hurrah for Westwood, Hurrah for those who care,

Give a friend a hug just for being there.

Give a friend a hug it spreads everywhere.
