I think this is the best school in Atlanta, GA, to get your kid ready for college in all aspects. The resources that the school offers are top-notch in all areas. The way the school is set up to prepare your child for college is the best that I could find in Atlanta, Ga.

I don't like the feel. I get a decent schooling, but I completely dissagree with the rating. This school is very ugh.

If you want your young children to think about differences between black White Asians, gender change, or becoming racist, then this school is for you. I don't want my children to think of anything about races besides academics like Math, Science. Everyone should be the same and equal. In my children's eyes, Black, White, and Asian are the same. Westminster should not promote hatred toward any group. Ending racism is not about promoting hatred of others. As far as I know, some schools like AIS are the same. They are very discriminate toward unvaccinated. This is the information Westminster did. defendinged.org/incidents/the-westminster-schools-in-atlanta-uses-its-largest-in-the-nation-endowment-to-make-5-million-anti-racism-pledge/

As a parent of two children at Westminster, I have been highly impressed. We became involved with the community when my husband took a teaching position almost a decade ago. We eagerly cut (a lot of) corners to enroll both of our daughters when they started middle school. Yes, there is a lot of weal...
