Progress reports were emailed to parents yesterday.

Variety Show
Friday, February 4
Make plans to attend the Westminster Variety Show benefitting Nagoya Christian School tomorrow in the OMPC sanctuary at 7:00 p.m.  The cost to attend is $5.00 per person with a cap of $25 for immediate family members.  Please note that the only entrance will be through the sanctuary doors.  The doors at the normal school entrance will be locked, so please plan on parking outside the sanctuary. Upper Schoolers, make sure to let the ticket table know what House you are in to win House points for attending the Variety Show!

A Note from Admissions
If you are in need of a new Westminster car decal or would like a license plate, please visit the front desk at the Upper or Lower School to pick one up! This is a great way to begin a conversation about Westminster with others in the community.
