Welcome

Located in Orange County, California, the Westminster School District serves nearly 8,200 elementary and middle school students in 17 schools throughout the communities of Westminster, Garden Grove, Huntington Beach, and Midway City.

In most recent past years, WSD was one of just 26 districts in California (out of about 1,000) to be named an Honor Roll School District, a national program recognizing high-performing schools that improve outcomes for students.

WSD has received various prestigious awards; like the California Pivotal Practice awards for 13 of our schools and the district office, CSBA Golden Bell, Title I Schools and CA Distinguished school awardee these last three years.

Additionally, the district offers a variety of specialty programs from Vietnamese and Spanish Dual Language Immersion programs, computer science, to GATE, AVID, STEM/STEAM and College & Career. The VLDI program is the first in the state, which started in 2015.
