Introduction


**Westminster High School** (; [acronym](/wiki/Acronym "Acronym"): **WHS**), founded by Madam Elizabeth Kho in 1935, is a [private](/wiki/Private_school "Private school"), [Chinese](/wiki/Chinese-Filipino "Chinese-Filipino"), [Christian](/wiki/Christianity "Christianity") educational institution in [Manila](/wiki/Manila "Manila"), [Philippines](/wiki/Philippines "Philippines").[Westminster High School at Department of Education website](http://www.deped.gov.ph/private/private.asp?sec=&action=edit&iID=750&type=private).[Manila schools and universities directory](http://www.manila.gov.ph/schooluniversties.htm). It has a sister\-school under the same name in [Taiwan](/wiki/Taiwan "Taiwan").

Since the 1930s, the school had been offering [Chinese](/wiki/Chinese_language "Chinese language") courses from kindergarten up to high school, however, in 2001, it abolished the Chinese curriculum and ceased from participating in sports competitions with other Chinese schools in [Metro Manila](/wiki/Metro_Manila "Metro Manila"). As a result, the student population of [Chinese](/wiki/Chinese_people "Chinese people") and [Filipino\-Chinese](/wiki/Filipino-Chinese "Filipino-Chinese") has declined steadily over the years.

Recently, under the new management, the school refurbished its facilities, adopted the [Singaporean Math](/wiki/Singaporean_Math "Singaporean Math") method to its curriculum, and reintroduced [Chinese language](/wiki/Chinese_language "Chinese language") classes to its students.
