Westminster Community Schools

THEY ATE CAKE

For Parents

The Westminster Schools send home announcements and communication to parents in written form on Fridays. Many of the mini-schools include weekly newsletters from their programs along with the all school announcements. Collectively, these have been known as the Friday Notes. We are in the midst of revising the frequency of the Friday Notes - sending them out the on the first Friday of each month - and renaming them First Friday Notes. We hope that this will meet the needs and also reduce the redundancy in some of our communication. We encourage all teachers to send home frequent classroom or team notes. We will check in with parents to see if we are still meeting needs - and of course we can always have special editions.

For Visitors

Westminster is in southeastern Vermont, the third largest town in Windham County, with 3,210 people (2000 Census) and about 420 students enrolled in school. The town schools have 210 students in K-6th grade in two schools. Westminster has no public 7-8 grades, so students attend local public and private schools, many of the students attend the Bellows Falls Middle School (the closest public school and part of WNESU) and Compass School, which is located on Route 5 in Westminster.

The local public high school is Bellows Falls Union High School.
