- Staff and students love the Lord, value learning, and find joy in their work in God's kingdom.
- Students pursue excellence in a college preparatory curriculum through honors, AP, and college-credit courses, on stage with an award-winning drama program, through vibrant art and music courses, and in the field as part of a nationally recognized athletics program.
- In an ever-changing world, a foundation in the truth unites Westminster and makes us a home away from home.
- School Motto: Belong. Believe. Become.
- School Mascot: Wildcats
- In a world that feels increasingly uncertain, you want more than a great education for your child. You want them to be known, grounded in faith, and prepared to face the future with confidence and purpose. You're looking for more than a school, but a Christ-centered community that shares your values and partners with you in shaping your child's future.
- We know it's hard to trust others with your child's well-being, development, and growth. For 50 years, Westminster has earned the trust of families like yours by providing a safe, biblically grounded, college-preparatory education for students in grades 712, equipping them to thrive academically, spiritually, and personally without compromising truth.
- Here, students aren't seen as numbers, but as image-bearers of Christ-challenged in the classroom, supported in community, and shaped for a life of impact. You can be confident your child will be prepared for college, career, and life, and most importantly, discover their identity in Jesus. This isn't just school-it's family. You are not alone.
