This school is so beneficial to this area. The Principal (Mrs. Kelley) is wonderful. She is very caring, focused, helpful, and devoted to the students. You can tell she truly cares about the school, students, and her staff. She's an absolute delight to me and my child. She really pays attention and cares for the student's needs. They are there to provide for the students and promote a Healthy Christian Learning Environment. I cannot say enough good things about this school, or the principal. I highly recommend and endorse Westgate Christian School!
