My experience at Westminster has been absolutely horrible to say the least. The administration is awful and unwilling to accommodate or help students with their needs. The teachers are sub-par, in my experience most of them are not qualified. Another huge issues is Westminster's ability to retain faculty. Their teacher turn-over each year is ridiculous. I also need to mention that the classes are too hard and too competitive. Westminster is great at creating burn outs. They also make it so difficult to take AP classes. I could write an essay about all of Westminster's faults. How about focusing on improving the academics and student life instead of wasting money on new buildings. If you want your children to have a good learning experience you should avoid Westminster at all costs.
If you have a Black son, don’t choose this school. I thought that giving my son a great education would be enough, but realistically, there’s a tiny amount of Black people and an even smaller amount of black boys at the lower school. Over time, this “othering” takes its toll on your child. They lack culture. They lack diversity and don’t want it. Since we’ve been here we’ve noticed less and less black boys being admitted, this year only 1 in a pre-first class of over 100. This is not an accident. I’ve seen the removal of black history month events, and any semblance of black culture from the school overall. This feels like no accident as well. They don’t want us here and they don’t make it a secret.
My advice, if you’re on the fence on whether to choose this school or not, this is your sign to run in the other direction. They don’t want you there and are making very little effort to make the small black community that goes there feel like they belong.
The Westminster Schools has the academic rigor fit for a college preparatory school, offering a challenging environment that allows students to think critically, explore interests, and develop the skills necessary for the future. However, improvements in how clubs and other extracurricular activities are regulated could be made so that all student-led clubs and organizations on campus are active and constantly making progress.
