Volunteer with Academy 4
Serve with Academy 4!
Academy 4 is a local nonprofit organization that pairs 4th grade students in economically disadvantaged schools with a mentor. Students meet with their mentors monthly for 90 minutes to walk through a leadership development curriculum from which they learn a new leadership trait each month (Listen, Encourage, Attitude, Develop, Example, Respect, Serve). Through the simple vehicle of a positive relationship with a dependable adult, 4th grade students gain a greater sense of self-worth, a positive view of the future, increased engagement in school, and encouragement for greater academic achievement.
Westover has been volunteering with Academy 4 since 2018, and our volunteers are paired with students at Pillow Elementary School. We serve together one Friday each month. This is a great way to share God’s love with young people in Austin.
If you are interested in volunteering with Academy 4 alongside 40+ other Westover members:
Please email Glenn Scott (tglennscott86@gmail.com) or complete the form on Westover’s Serve page.
When you volunteer with Academy 4, you have the option to mentor (which is what most people do) or you may also lead a club.
Club Leaders lead clubs from 11:30am-1:00pm. Clubs are themed around topics like American Sign Language, cooking, engineering, financial literacy, and golf.
Mentoring occurs from 1:00pm-2:30pm.
All volunteers meet at Pillow Elementary, 3025 Crosscreek Drive, Austin, TX 78757
Spring Men's Retreat
Camp Hensel in Marble Falls, TX
“How do you read it?” The Necessity of Reading Scripture in Community
REGISTER HERE »
Luke 10:25–28, Deut 6:4–7
We live in a world of sides, labels, and lines in the sand. These divisions don’t just shape culture; they shape us.
They shape our relationships.
They shape our churches.
They even shape how we read the Bible.
At this year’s Spring Men’s Retreat, we’ll confront the hidden “silos” that influence our faith and assumptions. Through engaging Scripture studies and discussion, we’ll rethink how we study Scripture and how we engage with others who see things differently. Come ready to be challenged, encouraged, and spiritually sharpened.
Special guest speaker: Rob Kranz

Noble 45: Mt. Playmore
Noble 45 is our monthly adventure for 4th and 5th graders. In February, we're taking everyone to Mt. Playmore—Texas' largest indoor playscape. Email kids@westover.org with questions.
Noble 45 is a program for Westover 4th and 5th graders. Every month on the 4th Sunday, we go on an adventure in Austin. It could be painting a pot, or playing putt-putt and even going to find the best Hot Chocolate in town. It is always just 15.00 and it's a great way to build community with friends that can last a lifetime. Noble 45 allows our preteen kids to explore new experiences and challenges, and deepen Christ-centered relationships with each other as a launching pad for the middle and high school years.
If you have questions, please email kids@westover.org
