On September 13th, Westfield's Foreign Language Club will host its fourth "Tour de Westfield," an on-campus bike race modeled after the annual Tour de France that is held in France every summer. In the Middle School, only students in 8th grade are allowed to participate. In the Upper School, students in grades 9 through 12 may participate.

For more information, please contact Mrs. Anna Caulley at [email protected].
