Westfield Friends School is a coeducational independent day school for students in Preschool 2 through grade 8. As a Friends school, Westfield develops students to their fullest potential by focusing on active learning grounded in Quaker values. A Westfield Friends School education ignites the natural wonder of childhood, channeling their curiosity as they grow into confident, capable learners.
We believe that a diverse community leads to a confident, empowered child. Finding strength in our differences, we use kindness and compassion to help students forge lasting friendships. A learning environment marked by respectful interactions makes us stronger, smarter, and more resilient. We celebrate each child’s unique spirit honoring the principles that bind us together.
Minutes from the Tacony-Palmyra Bridge, our historic, beautifully wooded 8.5-acre campus is convenient to students coming from Burlington, Camden, and Gloucester Counties in New Jersey, and from the greater Philadelphia area in Pennsylvania.
The world we seek for children begins here.
