Research The Westminster Schools private Schools in Acworth, Georgia

“Excellent all around, academics, teachers, sports, music and all in a christian environment...My child has attended since first grade...she is now a rising 4th grader and states that 'everyday is her best day ever' this is what I most want to hear as a dedicated parent.......”

“This is a great school with a strong focus on academics and being a good citizen in the world. The junior high program structure is absolutely amazing, the kids get a lot of oversight and guidance.”

“I am a graduate of Westminster who went on to the architecture program at Georgia Tech, one of the very top programs at one of the very top schools in the nation. Westminster prepared me beautifully for college. While fellow students at Tech struggled to keep up with the workload & general level of performance demanded by a school such as Tech, I never felt over-whelmed, under-prepared, or lacking in any aspect of my foundation of knowledge needed to be successful & graduated Cum Laude. Truly nothing I encountered at Tech was as difficult or demanding as what I encountered at Westminster, and the skills I learned at Westminster continue to serve me today in the workforce. In particular, my colleagues are continually impressed with my writing & communication skills since my degree is from an engineering school. I cannot stress enough how fabulous the education and preparation Westminster provides is.”

“I am a student at Westminster and I find the classes very good. The teachers are well-trained and most of my classes don't keep you asleep. Westminster has a great library, a wonderful science and world cultures program, a wonderful art and drama program, and great performing arts opportunities. However, I do not find Westminster's diversity great, I do not like the P.E. program (because you are graded on how good you are in sports), and I wish that the people there slightly less snobby. The main focus is name brands, and although my family has a good amount of money, my parents do not believe in spoiling me. There is a lot of gossip and verbal bullying among the girls, so be careful! I'm sure this will pass by high school.”

“My daughter went to Westminster, from 9th -12th grade. She received a superior education. While at Westminster, she spent a (school) year in Spain through the School Year Abroad Program. She went on to Duke University. She did well there. She has just finished her second year of law school.”

“Westminster is an amazing school! I go there and it is a wonderful experience. Everybody is nice and smart. All the teachers are helpful and you always have a quiet place to do your homework, study, or ask questions... extra help! There are soo many great oppurtunities and I always feel welcome here! Go wildcats!”

“I go to Westminster, it is one of the best experiences in my life. All of the teachers are very nice and help you with anything you don't understand. The campus is amazing. All of the students are very diverse and are so incredibly nice. In my first year at Westminster I made more friends than I've ever had in my whole life! the teachers provide any way possible for you to understand the problem. I look forward to going to school everyday, which definitley says something. I love Westminster!”

“Well, I'd say, since I graduated from this school in 2003, that Westminster Schools is a pretty decent school. Positive things include: A good library, diverse people, and 'awkward' teachers. Negative things include: Poor Leadership, Too much leniency on studies and homework, and too much misjudgment towards others. Now, I'm not saying this is a bad school, but it works as well as any other public school. If you really like great private schools, you should look at The Atlanta International School. ~ Note: This is constructive criticism...Please, I do not mean it as an offence to others.”

“I have a step-child who attended Westminster and a child who is attending a quite different type of private school. I feel I can offer some objectivity by virtue of comparisons for any families considering the school. Westminster is truly a wonderful school, but only for a child who enjoys a more linear way of thinking. The school offers a traditional top down style of teaching and offers near college level resources. Even with the resources, however, families should be aware that outside supplementation in nearly every area will be the norm and will be necessary if you want your child to be a more rounded thinker. The nice thing about off campus classes and tutoring, though, is that it allows a child the opportunity to try new things without fear of failing. They can bring that experience back to Westminster to help round out their academic experience.”

“Every aspect of the school is very well thought out and managed. The education process is well designed and every resource is made available to execute.”

“The Westminster Schools is by far the best private school in Georgia. Actually, it is probably the top private school in the entire southeast. With the help of the highly decorated teachers, students gain a wealth of knowledge that will lead the on the right path in the future. In the elementary school, students learn the fundamental ideas to further progress with education and life. The time spent in the Junior High School is the main building block in the school. It is used to give students a taste of the high school. The highly decorated high school, with its numerous awards, sets the children on a path that will lead through college and into life as a businessman/businesswoman. With the help of the magnificent headmaster, principals, and college counselors, your children if they wish to go to this school will have an opportunity for a prestigious future.”

“Westminster is an incredible social and academic experience. The middle school is one that is extremely nurturing and prepares the students for high school.”
