I am blessed to have my 4 children at WA! I have seen MANY changes over the last 8 years, ALL for the best, especially as Joel Satterly came to be the Headmaster. Under his strong leadership and vision, we've seen the campus transform and the mission of the school strengthened. WA is a wonderful family-oriented community. Teachers help students grow academically, spiritually, emotionally, and socially and truly care about their students wanting to see them not only succeed but to be challenged.
My children have had the chance to do many sports, extracurriculars, field trips, spiritual retreats and service opportunities. Students are encouraged to discover their God-given gifts and talents and use them for His glory. I've seen them shine under the direction of the incredible Preschool and Elementary music teacher, Mrs. Blatz! They learn Spanish starting in PreK from Sra. Thompson, Art techniques from Miss Salas and even Technology from Mrs. Hopkins in the state-of-the-art IQ Lab!

Westminster Academy has a great Christian education! In a world where everything is relative, it is amazing to rest assured that the kids are being educated with the absolute truth of Jesus Christ. "Train up a child in the way he should go; even when he is old he will not depart from it." (Pr. 22:6). Working at WA as a Spanish teacher, I can testify to the diversity and respect for other cultures. All the teachers are experts in their subject area and they shine God's light to the students, by serving with their gifts and talents with excellence. The WA community (families and school staff) has a strong relationship that endures for a lifetime.
Westminster Academy has been a great experience for our children for the last four years. We know that when we send our children to school, they will be challenged academically, loved by their teachers and classmates, and will be kept physically, mentally, and spiritually safe. They have received a high quality, Christ-centered education that is by far unmatched and we couldn't be more pleased. We are blessed to be part of the WA family!
