Summer School
Enjoy a Summer of Learning at Westminster
Westminster engages bright, curious, motivated students who are nurtured by challenge. Summer School gives these students the ability to design their learning path by offering academic courses that complement their educational experience during the school year. Students enjoy a personalized learning environment with outstanding faculty. Summer School courses, unless otherwise indicated, are open to Westminster and non-Westminster students who seek to extend their learning beyond the school year. Please feel free to reach out to us with questions.
Summer School for Middle School
Westminster's Summer School courses for Middle School students support rising sixth, seventh, and eighth grade students to strengthen their reading, writing, math, and computer skills and to transition smoothly into middle school, both academically and socially.
Important attendance information: Students who are required to attend Summer School as a condition of admission to The Westminster Schools may only miss class due to illness or family emergency.
Middle School 2025 Summer Courses
Registration for Middle School Summer School courses will open in early March.
For questions about Middle School courses, contact Director of Summer School James Jessup.
Summer School for Upper School
Summer School is a deep dive into one course, either a new class that is only available during the summer, or a course that fulfills a graduation requirement. Students may choose to attend Summer School to:
- Pursue a passion or explore a new area of interest
- Transition smoothly into Upper School
- Create a more balanced schedule during the school year (for artists, athletes, AP students, students who take multiple electives, etc.)
- Strengthen academic skills
- Experience the Atlanta community and beyond
Important attendance information: To receive course credit, students may miss no more than one day of class. Students may not miss the first or last day of any class.
REGISTRATION
Admittance to all Upper School Summer School courses is by application. The 2025 application will be available to current Westminster students and parents beginning at 8 a.m. on January 27 in the Student and Parent Portals.
Some Summer School courses are open to non-Westminster students. Contact Summer Camp Director James Jessup for details.
