Westlake High School (WHS) is a public high school located in Saratoga Springs, Utah, United States. It is part of Utah County's Alpine School District. The school first opened in 2009. In late 2011, construction began for a new junior high school, Frontier Middle School, in nearby Eagle Mountain, which removed 9th grade from Westlake for the 2013-14 school year onwards.
Adjacent to the school is a seminary building of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Also nearby is Vista Heights Middle School.
In 2012, Westlake High School's Marching Band was the 4A State Champion with the show "Making of a Masterpiece," and were a Bands of America regional finalist at the St. George BOA regional, taking 10th place. The "Marching Thunder" repeated as Utah 4A State champion in 2013 with their show, "Our Town," and also placed 4th at the St George, Utah Bands of America Regional. During the 2013 season, the color guard won the "best guard" caption award in every competition entered by the Marching Thunder. With their show "Black Tears", they were a Bands of America regional finalist at the St. George and American Canyon, CA BOA regional, taking 7th place in St. George and 9th in American Canyon. They also placed third in the St. George preliminaries.
The Marching Thunder were invited to be the Utah representative to march in the Pearl Harbor Memorial parade in December 2014 and to march in the 2018 Pasadena Parade of Roses.
