This school was one of the best decision I made, my daughter started on 7th grade, I couldn't be happier, they always make sure kids are very involved in all the activities in the school, I love how they get sent to Warrior week a week before school starts, for a full week to interact with each other, this school have been a blessing for me and my family.

Westminster is an excellent school. My students have attended since preschool and are now in high school. They love the environment, the dedication and nurture they receive from the teachers, and the education they are receiving. The WCS community encourages students to thrive and develop their gifts, be it in athletics, fine arts, or in an specific academic area. The campus has the feel of a small college campus - there is a new science building, new elementary school building, and a new student activities center. Great place for your children to grow - both academically and in their faith!
