The teachers genuinely care for the students and want what's best for the students. There are opportunities for students to try new things that they wouldn't otherwise be able to try at a larger school.

This is our second year at Westminster and we have been blown away by the teachers and the community at the school! My daughter feels so loved by her teachers and the principal! Westminster has helped us create a solid foundation in Christ by learning about Him in every aspect of her day. We are so thankful for this school!

We are middle class family. All four of our children (all of average intelligence) have been at WSOM since kindergarten and we could not be more pleased. We consider the tuition paid to Westminster to be a better investment than what we will pay for college. The classical curriculum that Westminster...
