Western Heights Christian School admits students of any race, color, and national and ethnic origin to all the rights, privileges, programs, and activities generally afforded or made available to the students at the school.
It does not discriminate on the basis of race, color, or national and ethnic origin in the administration of its educational policies, admissions policies, athletics, and other school administered programs.
We use a curriculum called βA BEKAβ in our classrooms that has been developed through 50 years of classroom experience at Pensacola Christian Academy.
A Beka is firmly grounded in the Word of God and has had an extremely positive response from our children, who learn at a fascinating level.
