Westminster School Upper School – Where Scholars and Leaders Thrive

 


At Westminster School, our Upper School program (Grades 6-8) is designed to cultivate intellectual curiosity, personal responsibility, and creative confidence in every student. We provide a rigorous yet nurturing environment where young scholars develop the skills, knowledge, and character to excel—both in academics and in life.

A Curriculum Built for Depth and Discovery
Our Upper School program features subject-specialist teachers, each deeply passionate about their discipline. Whether in English, mathematics, history, science, or classical languages (French and Latin), students benefit from immersive classroom experiences where every lesson is designed to inspire.
  • Small class sizes ensure individualized attention.
  • Daily advisories help students stay organized and accountable.
  • A team-teaching approach ensures a balanced workload and seamless coordination across subjects.
Beyond the Classroom: Leadership and Enrichment
Westminster believes education extends far beyond textbooks. Our enrichment programs include:
  • STEAM & Technology (Grades 6-8)
  • Shakespeare Studies (Grade 7)
  • Ballroom Dancing (Grades 7-8)
  • Leadership & Personal Development (Grade 8)
These experiences foster confidence, creativity, and real-world skills—preparing students not just for high school, but for life.
The Arts: A Foundation for Expression
A Westminster education is incomplete without the arts. All students participate in:
  • Visual and performing arts classes
  • School music programs and theatrical productions
  • Dance instruction at every grade level
We believe the arts are essential to developing well-rounded, empathetic, and expressive individuals.
Academic Rigor with Purpose
Our students engage with high-quality, in-depth curricula, progressing at an advanced pace thanks to:
  • Nightly homework reinforcing classroom learning
  • Regular assessments, projects, and presentations
  • A learning environment that encourages intellectual risk-taking
The result? Graduates who are prepared, confident, and eager for future challenges.
