Westwood High School Senior (also known as Westwood Senior High School) is an English language high school located in Hudson, Quebec. The school is part of the Lester B. Pearson School Board offering secondary III, IV, and V education along with its partner Westwood High School Junior Campus which offers secondary I and II education.

Westwood Senior High School is located in the town of Hudson, Quebec of the Montérégie administrative region within the Greater Montreal metropolitan area of Quebec – roughly 24 km west of Montreal Island.
Immigrant families from Cumberland, England first began to settle on this land in the early 1800s. Attracted by the rolling hills, fertile lands for farming, and proximity to the Ottawa River, families put down their roots along the Lake of Two Mountains. Beginning construction in 1919 and officially opening in February 1920, Westwood Senior High School, previously Hudson High School, is a school with a long history.
Renovations first began when it became necessary to erect a fence in order to prevent cattle from wandering onto the yard during lunch. Since then, the population of Hudson and surrounding towns has continued to grow, leading to major renovations and additions in 1939, 1948–49, 1961–62, and in 1987-88.
Due mainly to population growth, Hudson High School was renamed Westwood Senior High School on July 1, 2003. Divided into two campuses, Westwood Senior High School comprises secondary III, IV, and V students while the smaller campus Westwood High School Junior Campus comprises secondary I and II students.
Westwood Senior High School offers a variety of co-curricular programs which includes athletics, drama, music, art, cultural activities, debating, student government, community service, tutoring, and more.
