Overview
Below are the founding principles of Westminster Academy. Day-to-day and future decisions are based on our aspirations to provide the finest Classical Christian education possible guided by these principles.
Foundations
Westminster Academy's foremost conviction is that parents are responsible for the education of their children. Therefore, parents are welcome and encouraged to participate in the daily life of the school. This understanding goes beyond the concept of volunteering . . . we have an open door policy; parents are welcome to sit in on any class, at any time, for any reason.
Our Mission
Westminster Academy offers parents tools for teaching their children to reason, discern and apply Truth by way of scripture and the Classical liberal arts.
Our Definition of Classical Christian Education
Classical Christian education is the cultivation of virtue and wisdom by nourishing the soul on Truth, goodness and beauty according to God's Revelation using the Classical liberal arts. Its purpose is to train the soul (which is the seat of the mind, will and emotions) to love that which is worth loving (see Classical Model).
Our Vision
Westminster Academy exists to fulfill its mission and to train, equip and support others who share this same vision to start Classical Christian schools.
Our Purpose
Westminster Academy's purpose is to glorify God.
