19 Feb A Word from Dr. Satterly—February 19, 2026
Dear WA Community,
These next weeks mark a significant season in the life of Westminster Academy, filled with important milestones that reflect both God’s faithfulness and our shared commitment to excellence.
From February 22–24, we will welcome a team for our Council on Educational Standards and Accountability (CESA) recertification and site visit. Immediately following, on the evening of February 24, we will publicly launch The Next Chapter Capital Campaign—a defining moment in our school’s history. I hope you will join us as we turn the page to the next chapter of Westminster Academy’s story. Then, March 4–6, we will host a team from Christian Schools of Florida (CSF) for our accreditation visit.
While these days are full, they are also deeply encouraging. Each visit and initiative represents years of prayer, preparation, and a steadfast pursuit of excellence grounded in our mission. As Scripture reminds us, “The Lord has done great things for us, and we are filled with joy.” (Psalm 126:3). We move forward confidently, trusting that the same God who has guided us faithfully for decades will continue to lead us into this next chapter.
On a personal note, in the midst of this busy season, God’s blessings have abounded in a very special way as our family welcomed a new grandson late last week. We are grateful for His goodness both within our school community and in our own home.
Thank you for your prayers and partnership during this exciting time in the life of WA.
In Christ,
Dr. Joel Satterly
Headmaster
