co-curricular activities

With more than 90 clubs to choose from, Westminster students can explore almost any interest—from entrepreneurship to science, gardening to rock climbing, and performing arts to public service. They compete on academic teams, serve their peers on a number of leadership councils, and meet new friends in clubs that take place both during the school day and after school. Every Wildcat has the opportunity to participate, even the youngest ones!
 

A Sample of Student Activities

MAC and WAC

All Upper School singers can audition for Westminster’s popular a cappella groups MAC (for tenor and bass voices) and WAC (for alto and soprano voices). Performing on and off campus throughout the school year, members form long-lasting friendships and receive rave reviews from fellow students, faculty members, and parents.

Studio W

Participating with Westminster’s StudioW filmmaking team offers exciting opportunities like attending the All American High School Film Festival in New York. During the 2022 festival, nine students filmed, produced, edited,and presented their short film “The Man in the Mirror” and enjoyed the red carpet festivities at the Teen Indie Awards.

Robotics

Our highly competitive Middle School robotics team has sent at least one and as many as three teams to the world championships four years in a row starting in 2020. In addition, the WiredCats have won two state championships since 2020 and coveted awards in Design, Overall Excellence, and Robot Skills.

Active Minds

The national organization Active Minds works to reduce the stigma surrounding mental health issues through information and advocacy. Westminster’s Middle School and Upper School chapters create schoolwide programming, including Stress Less week, to create an atmosphere where students can be comfortable with themselves.

 

Model UN

Westminster's Model UN team is off to a strong start after forming in the 2022-23 school year! In December 2023, Westminster placed second among Middle Schools at the Atlanta International School Model UN Conference, with debaters taking home awards for Best Delegate and Best Research.

Play Unified

The Play Unified® club partners with various local organizations to create sporting events and other activities where Westminster Upper School students and young people with intellectual disabilities participate together. Play Unified is a movement created by Special Olympics to give people with and without intellectual disabilities the opportunity to enjoy and appreciate each other’s gifts on and off the playing field.

Math Team

Westminster’s Math Team, led by Upper School math teacher Lina Ellis, placed third overall in the 2022 UGA High School Math Tournament. Alex Wa ’24 placed second individually and Samanyu Ganesh ’26 placed fifth individually competing against 159 students from 20 schools.
