​​Dear WA Community,  The first Tuesday, after the first Monday in November, is Election Day. The significance of that day is not lost, as the airwaves, mailboxes, and most street corners attest. Nor should we ignore its importance, for as Christian citizens, we have a duty to participate in the electoral process. But, even more than a duty, we have the opportunity to participate civically in our own governance. This is a blessing, a rich heritage, and the envy of much of the world. While that particular Tuesday in November is critical to our republic, it is not the only date early...

During the week of October 24, grades 3–6 participated in Digital T.H.I.N.K. Week, which was led by PREP Principal Dr. Rebekah Owens.

Each day of the week focused and expanded on one of these topics. Discussions included evaluating whether you could trust...

The Upper School Student Council led the efforts to collect food and donations for the people who were impacted by Hurricane Ian. WA students and families answered the call and collected over 3,500 items. Along with donations, several students also joined with Coral Ridge Presbyterian Church to serve those in Ft.

We are proud of our students as we see the characteristics of our Portrait of a Graduate clearly on display!...

​​Dear WA Community,  It is homecoming week at Westminster Academy. Typically this time-honored tradition is marked by pep rallies, student activities, a home football game, and the return of alumni. This year is no exception as we are excited to welcome home the Class of 1997, the Class of 2002, and the Class of 2012 because family never graduates. In addition to frivolity, homecoming also affords a wonderful time to reflect on our rich history and to recall what God has done at and through Westminster Academy. It is a time to celebrate the impact of a school devoted to Christ and...
