Whiting Lane School

The school educates grades kindergarten through fifth, with an annual enrollment of approximately 450 students. As of 2006, the school principal is Dr. Nancy DePalma. In 2004, the school selected the owl as their mascot and by a vote of students the mascot was named "Flash".

In 1997, West Hartford wanted to expand the school to provide better service for pre-kindergarten and special education, so an addition comprising six pre-kindergarten rooms, six kindergarten rooms, and two special education rooms was built. The original building was built on a slope, with an upper and lower level and a small intermediate floor a half-floor between the two. The award-winning addition better joins the upper and lower levels with an L-shaped corridor. This corridor is brightly lit using natural light, and there is a courtyard to provide an enclosed outside area for the younger students to play. The addition was completed in September 1997. [(November 1998). "Elementary schools. (Architectural Portfolio 1999) (citations and awards for architectural designs." "American School & University" 71.3: 28(5).]

Webster Hill School

The school educates kindergarten through 5th grade, with an annual enrllment of approximately 500 students. As of 1995, the school principal is Mrs. Barbara Peck. Around 1999 to 2000 Webster Hill School decieded to build 4 brand new Kindergarten rooms and a way bigger school library. Also next to the school cafeteria there is a huge courtyard with a butterfly house! In late September they open up the butterfly house and release the butterflys to Mexico. For the 5th graders in September go to Natures Classroom either in Colebrook or Andover CT. They also do Trailblazers math, SucessMaker program and much more. The specials teachers are some of the nicest teachers you will ever meet.
