Westfield High School is a high school located in unincorporated Harris County, Texas, United States, near Houston.[2][3]

The school, which serves grades 9-12, is a part of the Spring Independent School District. The school, in the Westfield community, has a Houston, Texas postal address. At one time it also served Remington Ranch.[4]

History

In 1976, Spring High School 9th and 10th grade students were moved into a separate campus known as Spring High School – South. In 1981, the campus was converted into a four-year high school known as Westfield High School.[5][6]

In 2004, the district moved Westfield 9th grade students to a separate building. In 2009, Westfield 9th grade students were moved back into the main campus.[7][8] In February 2017 the district proposed redrawing the attendance boundaries of its high schools; this would take effect in the 2020-2021 school year. The district also plans to establish one ninth grade center for each comprehensive high school.[9]
