Our Mission
Distance learning with a
Christian Worldview
In a world that strives to suffocate the light, it is a joyful sight when we bring light back into the world through the minds and hearts of our children. The education your child will receive at Western Christian Academy will train them for academic excellence and is centered on biblical truth.
Every person has a worldview and believes in something, but “why” do we believe it? A worldview is constructed by life influences and experiences that provide a lens through which the world is viewed and processed.
The Christian worldview is a biblical worldview, whereby life is filtered through the Bible. It determines how we interact with people by setting a standard of serving others (Romans 12-15; Galatians 5:22-26; Luke 10:25-37). It is an integral part of what we do, and who we are at Western Christian Academy. It provides purpose, hope, and an anchor to the process of fulfilling our mission. The Christian worldview is interwoven into all our curriculum. Therefore, learning at Western Christian Academy develops the whole individual both academically and spiritually. This provides “hope for today and tomorrow.”
Custom course work
INDIVIDUALIZED
Everyone has a style of learning and each of us learn at a different rate of speed dependent upon the subject. Our individualized curriculum guides a student through academic lessons at their own pace, giving them the chance to master concepts at their level of ability before moving on to more challenging lessons.
This foundational principle of Western Christian Academy sets us apart from the ideological theories of education and gets to the heart of education – developing life-long learners, one student at a time. Rather than curriculum based upon what is best for an entire class, we consider the individual student and think critically about how to best support that student right where they are, not where they should be chronologically. Placement tests inform us of the capability of the student by identifying “learning gaps” in their academics. Students are then provided with individualized curriculum at their functional level, which may or may not be at their academic level. A support team of teachers and counselors come alongside each student to ensure a strong foundation for achievement.
When you enroll your student at Western Christian Academy they will receive an individualized instruction plan, the sustaining pillar that has repeatedly proven itself through the lives of our students and families – Celebrating 40 Years
Financially Flexible
Affordable
A pillar of Western Christian Academy is to provide an affordable private school education dedicated to academic excellence and character development to families who otherwise are unable to afford it. For over 40 years, this core value has been non-negotiable.
Western Christian Academy provides 4 different payment options with various applicable discounts that can be customized to work with any budget. We understand that budgets are tight for many families. This is just one reason why Western Christian Academy believes in consistency when it comes to tuition. Our goal is to maintain consistent tuition costs for a minimum of two years, thereby helping families to plan for their students’ education.

Testimonials
Western Christian Academy has been a blessing to our family in many ways. It allowed me to remove my daughter from the failing public school system and into an environment that used God’s teachings as a foundation. The curriculum and support throughout the years has been second to none and it enhanced our overall experience.
In recent years, my wife was diagnosed with stage 4 breast cancer. Unfortunately, that takes a toll on the entire family. Fortunately, it felt like the entire school rallied behind us in support, prayers, encouragement, and understanding as we persevered through tough times. I will forever be grateful for the love and guidance provided to us. Thank you, Western Christian Academy!
Our daughter Natalie is a 16-year-old in the 10th grade at Western Christian Academy where she has been enrolled since the 8th grade. We chose the school because, it is accredited with Christian core values that align with ours, and Natalie could safely study at home. Natalie began attending Western Christian Academy at the beginning of the pandemic and enjoys the freedom to learn at her own pace. One of her favorite subjects is French. Her hobbies are art, piano, music, baking, and reading. She has not chosen a particular path for her future yet, but she would like to help others.
Our son is Preston is a 16-year-old in the 10th grade at Western Christian Academy where he has been enrolled since the 1st grade. We value the Christian worldview instruction that Preston receives and the staff and teachers have been crucial throughout the years in Preston’s educational and character development. We live in Alabama and feel very connected to the school, and that is important to us. Preston thrives with homeschooling because it gives him the opportunity to pursue his many interests and gifts that God has blessed him with.
This is our 3rd year of being a part of Western Christian Academy. Our daughters Isabella, 11th grade and Sophia, a 9th grade student, began attending Western Christian Academy in order to receive a great education when other schooling was no longer an option. We love the freedom it has afforded us as a family. The team of teachers have been supportive, encouraging, and helpful.
Our kids love Western Christian Academy and the curriculum; it is flexible enough for them to use their God given talents. What we love the most is that the kids can access their classes from anywhere, especially now that we are on furlough and visiting churches back home.
Our daughter decided that she would like to try an online distance learning school instead of “just” home school. She did her own research and found Western Christian Academy. Blessings from the cold white north.
