"When a person walks in the front door of Westbury Christian, that person can sense that there is something different about this school. I believe this difference is that Christ is present and one can sense His Spirit."
- Robert "Doc" Farrar, WCS Chaplain
Westbury Christian School is a special place for those parents who take biblical instruction seriously in the raising of their children and for students who are interested in spiritual training. WCS is also a special place for those families and students who have not pursued the Christian walk, but who respect it and see the importance of it in their lives.
One objective of WCS is to glorify Jesus Christ through the teaching of His gospel. Every administrator and faculty member is a committed Christian. The learning experience at WCS is enhanced with an environment nurtured by Christian principles. Bible is taught every day and chapel is an integral part of school life. All academic classes, social and athletic activities, as well as spontaneous events, are conducted with Christian perspectives in mind. |
