Summer Reading - Westminster Christian Academy

Why Westminster?
Reach Higher
Westminster isn’t your average secondary school. Our mission calls us to prepare students for lives of service in God’s Kingdom. Explore the community values, teaching philosophy, and shared beliefs that set a Westminster education apart.
Admissions
Experience Westminster
We hope you will visit our campus and meet some of our faculty, students, and parents. We think you’ll discover that we are a distinctly Christian school full of world-class opportunities.
Academics
Be Challenged & Inspired
Westminster faculty encourage students to wrestle with complex ideas and make connections across disciplines while incorporating a biblical worldview into our college preparatory program.
Arts
Create Alongside Your Creator
We were created to create. Students experience the wonder and beauty of God’s creation as they explore the performing and visual arts at Westminster. The opportunities to reach and inspire others through art are endless.
Athletics
Pursue Excellence
Our top priority is to help student-athletes strengthen their relationship with Jesus Christ. As part of the Westminster athletic program, students grow in Christian character, develop a strong work ethic, and most importantly, learn how to honor Christ on and off the field.
