Westbury Tutoring FAQ
Westbury, New York, is a village that is part of Nassau County. Quakers first settled the region in 1658, and their culture would shape the area's rich history. Many British and German-speaking (Hessian) soldiers occupied the village during the Revolutionary War, and many of these Hessian men decided to stay in the area following the war's end. Westbury incorporated in 1932, experienced a building boom in the 1970s, and is now home to over 15,000 people.
The East Meadow Union Free School District administers the public schools in Westbury. The only secondary institution in the village is W. Tresper Clarke High School, which has received a silver medal for its educational programs from "U.S. News & World Report."
