| Schedule E, Part I, Line 3 RACIALLY NONDISCRIMINATORY POLICY | The Westminster Schools, an inclusive educational and spiritual community, embraces and values the unique qualities and traits of each of its members. We recognize that an informed understanding of one's own identity not only contributes to the development of a healthy, empowered young adult, but also enhances the learning experience for each and every member of the community. Consequently, we celebrate our growing diversity through protection and exploration of individual difference articulated along a wide spectrum that includes, but certainly is not limited to race, class, gender, religion, and/or sexual orientation. The school's nondiscriminatory policy is included in the school's website (www.westminster.net/about-us/diversity-equity-inclusion), printed material provided to every prospective student, and in any local newspaper or national magazine in which the school places and advertisement. |

| Form 990, Part III, Line 4a | The arts are historically very strong at Westminster. Over 61% of students in the middle school and 35% of students in the upper school participate in the performing arts. The band, orchestra, and choral programs have several offerings in each division of the school and consistently receive superior ratings in competitions. Westminster is dedicated to the concept of community service and students have a strong tradition of involvement in their school and the wider community. Most students participate in voluntary community service. All divisions of the school participate in service opportunities throughout the school year. Through its endowment, Westminster has been able to provide educational opportunities to students who would otherwise not be able to participate in private education. In the 2024-2025 school year, 10% of the students received need-based financial aid which made attendance at Westminster possible. Food services provide 2,414 lunches each day for students, faculty and staff, plus a number of additional meals at events at the school. |
