Listing Manager: Michelle Burke

Westminster Christian Academy has provided students with a Christian education since 1976. The school moved from its 30-acre campus campus in Ladue to its brand new 70-acre Town and Country campus in July 2011.

The campus employs a "neighborhood" concept to build community among students, parents and faculty.

Although the school says more than 900 students were enrolled for the 2011-12 school year, staff said the new building can accommodate up to 1,200 students in grades. The $50-million campus houses grades 7-12.

The new school reportedly offers more than 100 classrooms, three gymnasiums, an indoor eight-lane swimming pool, a 610-seat theatre, 200-seat Black Box theatre, library, 400-seat cafeteria and a broadcast studio.

The school's athletic facilities include 12 outdoor tennis courts, a competition track, and a 2,000-seat football stadium with a synthetic turf field and grass fields for soccer, baseball, softball, field hockey and lacrosse.

Westminster Christian Academy genuinely prepares students to change the world for Jesus Christ. Students are challenged to find their identity in Christ, look at the world in which they live, and see how with God’s help they can make a difference. Throughout the day, the entire staff points the kids to Christ, modeling His love and grace, with humility. The strong academic arena for the gifted and challenged learner offers opportunity for all to excel. The abundance of arts, athletics, and academics allows all students to discover their unique talents. Students are not only well prepared for college; they are equipped for living a life for Christ.

We are blessed to be a Westminster family ! Our son graduated last year, loved WCA and was well prepared for college. Our daughter is in 9th grade this year....and loves school! Westminster has so much to offer academically, great athletic program, amazing drama and arts departments, clubs, leadership programs and so much more. The teachers, staff and administration breath the love of Christ and truly love our kids and encourage them to be the best they can be and want them to suceed.

We have had a child at Westminster for 16 years (since 1995), because we have 5 kids. Our youngest is enjoying the new beautiful campus. It is a wonderful community, true to its Christian mission statement. There is both academic challenge for high-level students and academic support for those students who struggle with learning disabilities, plus there are many activities available, including sports, arts, drama, music, debate, clubs etc.... Our older children were very well-prepared for college and enjoyed their time at Westminster.
