What’s New at the Park

Exciting things are happening at West Park Academy! 

When our principal, Mr. Stokes came to West Park a year ago he felt it was important to bring some changes to the school. Among other things, creating spaces where our students can express themselves and move freely were some of those changes. In the last year we have had some amazing additions to our campus that have allowed our scholars to do exactly that! We recently renovated our gym, and it has allowed for so many more opportunities for our students. We now have a space that allows them to be able to participate in several different extracurriculars such as dance, basketball, volleyball, cheer, and more. We also have upgraded our playground for our younger students to be able to have fun and engage with each other!

  • New playground coming soon
  • Newly renovated gym
  • Appointed principal
  • New clubs and extracurriculars
