PREP

Westminster Academy fully embraces the 16,000 hours that a student spends in school. It is within that space of time that we seek to develop each student spiritually, socially, and academically. Each of those hours is important. As you can imagine, what occurs during those hours differs dramatically depending on the student’s age. With that in mind, Westminster Academy provides a distinct academic division for grades 4–6 in our school—the Purposeful Rigorous Engaging Program or PREP.

PREP heavily emphasizes reading and math development with a specific focus on the sixth grade as transitional to upper school.
