Westgate Baptist Church, Spartanburg | Fees, Rankings, Address, Admission, Vacancies, Reviews & More

We have loved & appreciated this school since the very moment we toured over a year ago. We knew when we left that “tour day” that we had found the place for us. My 5-year-old just started school here a couple of weeks ago and to say that the administration, faculty, and teachers are amazing so far is an understatement. My husband and I was made to understand every single aspect of the school in general, left with not one unanswered question, and there is no shortage of communication. I found this really important as I want to be as involved as possible with my little girl’s future and education, so it’s very welcoming and reassuring how they unknowingly make my every worry and concern dissolve just with the level of communication. I plan on my daughter finishing high school here, and putting her brother here as soon as he is three.

We have also been attending the church as much as possible over the past couple of months & the teachings, values, the traditional worship style, and the conservative beliefs of the church have made me feel like I have found our church home-just like the one I grew up in. Pastor Wooten is amazing and translates His word in a way that makes it easy to understand the Bible. He is a very gifted pastor in the way that he communicates the word. I also enjoy the beautiful music-the choir, the pianists, and especially the hymns.

We are blessed to have found this school and Church. They both deserve a 10?. I highly recommend a visit (at least).

This school is about as close to a cult as you can get. Teachers and admin staff are oppressive. Half the teachers do not have any degree in their subject they are teaching nor an education degree but instruct kids in these areas. During my time here I witnessed several children expelled for things that didn’t happen in school property and were not the schools area of discipline or their business: students expelled for kissing off school property, a young girl expelled for rumors of pregnancy, and kids expelled over ridiculous things like Harry Potter books and rock music cds. This school is traumatizing to children and will psychologically affect your kids for years to come. As a former attendee who earned a degree in education myself, I am appalled by the treatment and practices at this school. Absolutely unforgivable and disturbing—like I said, a modern day cult if there ever was one. Almost on par with Westboro Baptist Church practices.. the similarity in name is no coincidence.
