What Parents Say about WCCA

Superb place. Several reasons:1. Quality of leadership. The school is superbly led by a thoughtful, caring, responsive leader. Dennis Dory is an excellent principal and it shows in the thoroughness of excellence in the key areas of education.2. Educational model. The school uses extremely creative and participative pedagogical techniques to teach a rigorous and academically robust curriculum. My child calls it ‘fun all day but you learn stuff...’3. Inspiring teachers. The level of care that the teachers give is astounding. They care for the academic, emotional, relational, ethical and spiritual dimensions of the child. They customize their approach to each child. In part because of the student - teacher ratio, the amount of customized loving attention is unparalleled in almost any other environment.4. Quality of communication. In the public school, I got 20 minutes a semester. I get that almost every week here.

Great school. The school focuses on academy development and character building. The classes are well-structured and planned so I don’t feel the need to send the kids to institutions like Kumon or Oxford. The school has quite a lot of events planned out during the year to help fellow families connect with one another. It makes you feel like you are part of a school community. Eventually education needs the efforts from both the family and the school.

My four year old son started JK here last fall. I have found my son’s teachers to be superb in helping my son transition smoothly from being home with me into being a part time student. I have found the staff, teachers and principal are eager to partner with parents to help our children mature with interpersonal skills, character formation and academic excellence. Our family is quite happy here!

This school is a hidden gem in our city, more people need to send their children here! The quality of the teachers and staff is unparalleled, and the amount of focused attention they give to each student is just incomparable. The passion and care that the teachers display is outstanding, and they provide such a wholistic approach to leading the students in all aspects - intellectual, spiritual, emotional. The school's classical model of learning is one that upholds character growth as much as academic rigour, and all this is done in fun creative and fun ways - our daughter's favourite place to be is at school! We cannot recommend this school enough and hope everyone makes the wise choice in sending their children to this school, it has been worth every effort and sacrifice to keep our daughter at this amazing place.

My grade 3 daughter made the switch in October from a public school. My only regret is not to have found this school much earlier. Their beliefs, culture, passion to educate definitely aligns with everything we believe in. I am most satisfied with the personal one on one attention they give students.

My two children, grade 8 and 5, love learning here. The rate and quality of intellectual development and stimulation is superb at this school: every afternoon, my children have a new story about something they've discovered, some great idea they can't wait to share. They really like their teachers and friends, and as a parent, it's such a relief knowing that their education and character building are in caring hands, nurtured by people who live by their Christian principles every day.

Our kids are striving in this school. The teachers care for the students, pray for their needs and respect them as persons. The classical teaching approach and materials are age appropriate and the practicals are stimulating to their curiosity. Learning latin is great in understanding the origin of words. The smaller classrooms are calm and orderly. We feel at peace in choosing this school to take care of our little minds.

My children started attending WCCA this year and we are very impressed after several weeks.- The teachers are deeply supportive; they know the kids personally and care about them personally.- My kids are genuinely excited about what they learn, consistently, voluntarily telling us about their day.- Rigorous academics, particularly in languages and arts - it is a place where you can learn how to think.- The whole community is strong and supportive.

Been amazing so far. Our child is well cared for and well educated with great personal attention. It is obvious that she is thriving. She is learning things in grade 1 that I didn't ever think possible. So cool! Love this school and everything it stands for with the classical model and the faith foundations it represents.

Our 7 y/o has been at WCCA since JK and we can honestly say that his teachers are interested in seeing our son grow in his learning, appreciation and admiration of God's works. We have also seen how hard teachers work to create the right learning environment, both for academic skills and character growth.

My two daughters absolutely thrive in the challenging yet caring academic standards set by WCCA. Classmates are wonderful children guided by empathetic teachers to create worldly, smart and strong character in our girls!

Choosing Westminster Classical Christian Academy for our 8-year-old was the logical choice. However, the thought of uprooting our child from a familiar setting, complete with established friendships, presented an emotional challenge.As the school year unfolded, our apprehensions were replaced by our son's positive experiences at Westminster. He not only expressed a genuine liking for the school but also articulated a sense of safety within its walls. What struck us even more were the scripture passages he enthusiastically shared—providing the foundation for how students should treat one another.Reflecting on this, we realized that the rough-and-tumble play in his previous environment didn't align with the values we instilled in him. While he may have kept up with his peers, there was an underlying dissonance. Westminster, in contrast, has proven to be a breath of fresh air for us as parents. It's not only meeting our academic expectations but is also nurturing our son's spiritual growth. We are very grateful for WCCA.

Our daughter started kindergarten at WCCA last fall. She has been thriving in this environment and it has only been a positive influence to our family. It is evident that she is deeply cared for by her teachers. Even in kindergarten, the students learn and recite an impressive amount of scripture by memory. We are extremely grateful to be part of the WCCA community.
