WCA is a covenantal school that provides a quality education from a Biblical perspective.
The Westminster Vision is designed to express the purpose of the school briefly and definitively. When we discuss Westminster's educational characteristics, some of the terms used may have different meanings to people; we submit the following definitions for clarification.
WCA is a distinctly Christian school that seeks to provide:
A COVENANTAL EDUCATION, which recognizes that God is in relationship with Christian families and that, in partnership with such families, WCA assists in the academic discipleship of their children.
A COLLEGE PREPARATORY CURRICULUM that enables students to identify and develop to their fullest their God-given talents and abilities and prepares them to be sensitive to and embrace God’s vocational direction following graduation. "For from him and through him and to him are all things" (Romans 11:36).
A competent CHRISTIAN FACULTY AND STAFF, which embraces and models the beliefs and values taught by Christian parents at home, and assists them in their God-given responsibility to educate their children "in the discipline and instruction of the Lord" (Ephesians 6:4). An evangelical BIBLICAL PERSPECTIVE, integrated into all learning that guides students in their acquisition of knowledge and skill, and equips them to discern truth and error and to make God-honoring decisions throughout their lives. "The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom, and the knowledge of the Holy One is insight" (Proverbs 9:10).
A challenging CO-CURRICULAR PROGRAM, providing academic, artistic, athletic, leadership, and social experiences which provide opportunities for students to integrate the teaching and principles of the Bible into their lives, both within and outside the classroom.
