The Webb Schools

Over spring break, Webb students traveled to the Galápagos Islands for a hands-on exploration of one of the world’s most unique ecosystems.

From exploring volcanic landscapes to visiting the Charles Darwin Research Station, students deepened their understanding of biodiversity, conservation, and global stewardship.

We are proud to recognize Anna Park ’26 for earning first place in the Behavioral Sciences category at the California Science and Engineering Fair and second place at the Los Angeles County Science and Engineering Fair.

Her poster, Predictive Modeling of Autism Spectrum Disorder, was recognized by Dr. Olga Korosteleva, Professor of Statistics at California State University, Long Beach, and Treasurer of the Southern California Chapter of the American Statistical Association.

Five Webb athletics teams have been named CIF Academic Team Champions for the 2024–25 school year—the most of any school in the CIF Southern Section! Each year, CIF-SS names the team with the highest average GPA in its sport the CIF-SS Academic Team Champion.

Congratulations to our boys and girls golf teams, boys and girls tennis teams, and the boys soccer team on their incredible academic achievement.

Additionally, Kaitlyn Metz ’25 and Andrew Paik ’25 have both been recognized as Athlete of the Year. These two remarkable athletes achieved 4.0 GPAs this year. Impressive work, Webbies!

After delivering innovative presentations at the Los Angeles County Science and Engineering Fair, Webb student scientists are advancing to the Regeneron International Science and Engineering Fair and the California Science and Engineering Fair.

Alex Wei ’26 is advancing to the Regeneron International Science and Engineering Fair in Columbus, OH, this May for his project, Auto-Detection TESS Survey for Single-Transit Exoplanets in Known Systems. He won the First Place Sweepstakes Award at LACSEF, which is given to the first-place winner in the Senior Division of the entire fair. Congratulations, Alex!

The Webb community is immensely proud of all our scientists for the incredible work they presented at LACSEF. Good luck to those advancing to the California Science and Engineering Fair!
