A Message From the Principal

Welcome to Westville Middle/High School! I want to begin by introducing myself. My name is Alissa Schnick. I am going into my eighth year in administration at Westville Middle/High School. Before that, I was a high school English teacher at Westville. 

The school community of Westville is a place where families choose to send their students. Staff members are empowered to teach and all students and staff are accepted and celebrated. Students are encouraged to become complex thinkers, caring individuals, and community contributors within a safe, well-maintained environment that is conducive to learning. I am very proud of Westville and its many academic, athletic and fine art achievements over the past several years.  

One critical component of individual student and school-wide success is effective school to home communication. We encourage families to stay in close contact with our teachers and administration. You can always call the school office or contact the staff directly at their school email.

At Westville, we are collectively committed to preparing students for the challenges of the 21st century. In addition to the academic courses offered at Westville, we have joint partnerships with other local schools to offer students many opportunities. These schools include South Central and their Project Lead the Way (PLTW) program, A.K. Smith Career Center, Purdue Northwest, Ivy Tech, and many of our seniors travel to local businesses to complete internships.
We must continue to work hard to prepare students for the rigors of college and the workforce. By working together, we can form a partnership centered on high academic achievement that will allow our students to achieve the ultimate goal of graduating college and career ready.

I look forward to another great year where we Inspire, Challenge, and Educate our students. Go Blackhawks!

Yours in Education,  

Alissa Schnick
