Westminster Academy

Though our Classical Christian approach to education is distinct (see Classical Model), much about Westminster Academy is similar to other fine schools. On these links, you will find our leadership includes highly qualified and dedicated Board members, our faculty are well trained and excel in teaching, our school is accredited, our students are attendinghighly regarded colleges and universities, and those graduated from colleges are involved in all walks of life and careers. Our athletic program is competitive and a point of pride in our community; our students are active and successful in programs outside the classroom.

As a “Christian” school, we subscribe to a particular worldview governed by our Statement of Faith and are committed to managing the school by our Founding Principles. Please consider making an appointment to personally visit the school and to find out more.

Founded in 1996 by six couples from five different churches, Westminster Academy had its first community-wide meeting on November 9, 1995, with guest speaker Marlin Detweiler. He is the founder and publisher of Veritas Press, formerly with The Geneva School in Orlando, and was starting Veritas Academy in Lancaster, Pa. In January 1996, Douglas Wilson, founder of Logos School, came and spoke to the group. Our educational philosophy has its roots in his work, Recovering the Lost Tools of Learning. His work was inspired by C. S. Lewis’ contemporary, Dorothy Sayers, who wrote an essay in the 1950’s promoting the recovery of the medieval Trivium for use in schooling.
