West View Elementary School

West View Elementary opened its doors to the children of the community in 1969. Since the doors to the school opened, West View has expanded 3 times, as the student population has more than tripled. This is a result of steady growth over the past 25 years in our school zone. Nestled in a diverse residential community on Spartanburg's western outskirts, our school welcomes students from over 14 different countries as well as multiple states in the U.S. At West View, diversity is a strength, and students are provided daily opportunities to engage in learning of many cultures, especially through the unique Global Studies curriculum provided to every student.
