Class of 2025 Gift

Class of 2025 families leave a transformational legacy for years to come


Thanks to the generosity and participation of parents, grandparents, and students in the Class of 2025, we achieved incredible levels of participation in the Class of 2025 Gift, and raised funds to transform the area between the paddle courts and Jackson Hockey Rink into a welcoming community space featuring a beautiful multi-use deck and adjacent outdoor lounge area. Thank you, Class of 2025 families and students!

Fall 2024 Construction Timeline

Following campus cleanup from the microburst in early August, 2024, construction crews worked tirelessly to bring the Class of 2025 Gift to fruition. We enjoyed tracking the weekly construction progress, culminating with a dedication of the space during Fall Parents and Family Weekend. 


"A way of being together and creating community and camaraderie..."
 
“Part of the ethos of Westminster is a joyful sense of play, a way of being together and creating community and camaraderie. We have been creating spaces that do just that - the Brock, Keyes Patio, the paddle courts, the golf simulator. The multi-phase outdoor rec area is another inspirational space that would call students to community by introducing new opportunities for them to gather, share and play. The Class of 2025 Gift in particular will transform a relatively empty space into one where students will just want to be, where they can both express and enjoy themselves in a multitude of ways and where we can celebrate that sense of play that we intentionally want to sustain, especially in this day and age as students are drawn more and more into their phones and social media.”
