West Dallas Community School’s educational philosophy and standard of academic excellence sets it apart from other schools.

We are both Classical and Christian, and dedicated to helping students realize their highest potential - spiritually, intellectually, physically, socially and creatively. Our small class sizes allow students to receive individual attention and have abundant opportunities to participate and lead.

Because of the education received at WDCS, our students exceed academic standards when compared to neighboring schools. 

West Dallas Community School’s Classical educational philosophy draws deeply on the rich heritage of Western civilization and culture. Our integrated approach features a core curriculum including mathematics and science, language arts and history, supplemented by additional instruction in music, art, nature studies, physical education and Latin.

West Dallas Community School functions as a nurturing community of fellow learners in which students are respected as unique individuals created in the image of God, each having special abilities and needs. We are an individual entity, and do not receive funding from the state. Students are required to take an entrance exam prior to enrollment. Our mission is only made possible by the generosity of foundations & supporters

We are committed to teaching our students how to think not only critically, but biblically as well. WDCS places emphasis upon developing each child’s character and the formation of good habits that will be beneficial throughout life. We believe that early development of a disciplined lifestyle in the context of a relationship with Jesus Christ will provide a solid foundation for a responsible and joyful life.
