As you consider opportunities for year-end giving, we would like to remind you why your gift to Westminster Academy matters. Since 1971, Westminster Academy has remained true to our mission of being a Christ-centered, biblically-based college preparatory school dedicated to equipping covenant students to excel by using their gifts and talents for God’s glory. We continue to be focused on both academic rigor and faith formation.

Service is a trait we focus on throughout the school. Our Lower School and PREP students had a wonderful opportunity to be a part of blessing students at College Susan Schuenke in Haiti.

Not only did this project allow our younger students an opportunity to serve, but WA alumni were involved as well! Sling bags were donated by Chris Carneal, Class of ’98, of Booster, and in conjunction with...
