Westbury Christian School’s High School program is focused on developing independence in the hearts and minds of young adults. Beginning in ninth grade, students are expected to move toward self-motivation and self-control in their spiritual, academic and behavioral choices. Ultimately, exhibiting spiritual maturity and the ability to transition successfully into a collegiate program demonstrates success to parents and the school. Having Bible classes every day as part of our required curriculum, as well as chapel twice a week, promotes spiritual maturity, while a rigorous academic program, which provides the opportunity for students to select from more than 18 AP classes and 12 Dual Credit opportunities, develops academic excellence.
