School Overview
Westwood High School is a small, public secondary school located in the rural community of Westwood, California, within the Westwood Unified School District. Serving the students of Lassen County, the school provides a close-knit educational environment typical of small-town institutions, emphasizing a personalized approach to learning. Because of its limited enrollment, the school fosters a tight community atmosphere where students and faculty often work closely together to support academic and social development.

The school operates as part of a unified district, which allows for a streamlined educational experience from elementary through high school. While the campus is modest in size, it offers essential core curricula and extracurricular opportunities aimed at preparing students for post-secondary education and local career paths.
