Special Olympics At Westminster

The sophomore class welcomed athletes from six special school district schools for a Special Olympics Basketball Challenge day this past March. The day began with buddy training followed by Opening Ceremonies and competitions. Each sophomore was partnered with a special school district athlete and had the privilege of cheering and assisting them throughout the day, including eating lunch together. Hosting the Special Olympics was a great opportunity for the sophomore class to engage our local community and practice our core value of leading with service.

We Are One

On Thursday, February 16, we hosted our annual Black History Month Celebration. The theme for this year’s celebration was African American fashion from the ‘60s through the 2000s.

Grandparents Day

Over 250 grandparents joined us this past spring for our annual Grandparents Day program. They were treated to a fun morning of breakfast and entertainment as the middle school fine arts classes performed and students and grandparents competed in a game of trivia with an interactive program presented by faculty.

Food Truck Night

One of the best ways to gather together is by sharing a meal. This past April, we invited local food truck vendors to park on our plaza after school. The moment the final bell of the day rang, students, parents, and staff rushed outside to enjoy tacos, funnel cakes, pizza, and more.

As part of the celebration, guests were treated to a fashion show with Westminster students posing as fashion models before moving into the Theatre for the We Are One program featuring fashion entrepreneur and 2016 Westminster graduate, Caira Butler. Caira guided the audience through a fun trivia game highlighting many African American fashion icons and pioneers. After the program, several fashion items from the trivia game were on display in the Hub. Not only was the evening a beautiful representation of creativity, but it was a time for worship together as brothers and sisters of the kingdom of God. Led by the Westside Baptist choir, everyone sang and worshiped Christ together. We are blessed to be able to worship our God together and praise Him for the diversity and wonder of His creation.
