Final Forms

Parents/Guardians of every student enrolled at Westfall Local Schools must complete Final Forms online registration before the first day of school. Documents such as Emergency Medical Forms, Acceptable Use Policies, and Student Handbook Agreements are available and must be completed online using this system. This platform enables parents or guardians to complete and electronically sign forms for their students. The forms can be found on our website or by clicking https://westfall-oh.finalforms.com/.

Food Services

Applications are available through the Free & Reduced Meal Application, effective August 1, 2025. Eligibility for free and reduced-price lunches is based on federal income guidelines or participation in programs such as the Supplemental Nutrition Program and Ohio Works First. We encourage ALL families to complete the quick and easy Free/Reduced Meal Application by August 12, 2025, to ensure qualified students are in the system prior to the start of school.

As we embark on this new school year, we are excited to have you back with us soon! We are dedicated to providing a nurturing and stimulating environment where every child can discover their potential, grow academically, and develop into compassionate, well-rounded individuals.

We truly believe that by working together—students, staff, and families—we can make this a year of remarkable progress and memorable experiences. Thank you for your continued trust and partnership; we can't wait to see the amazing things our students will accomplish. 

Go Mustangs!
