WCA July/August Newsletter
Learn more about 5th grade WCA student, Jacob Lensch as you read through this newsletter!
National School Choice Week shines a spotlight on effective education options for children and is the world’s largest celebration of opportunity in K-12 education.
Every child deserves an effective, challenging, and motivating education. And, because each student has their own unique set of talents, interests, and challenges, having a variety of options in education is crucial. What works well for one child may not work well for another child!
Due to the pandemic, many parents are worried about sending their kids back to school. In fact, according to one national poll, 40% of parents polled said they’re more likely to choose homeschooling or online school after lockdowns end.
If online learning for the 2020-2021 or 2021-2022 school year, then WCA is offering you the best in education, presented from a Biblical worldview, with individualized learning at an affordable price.
Call our office at 800-868-5839 or 559-475-8553. You can also go to our website at www.westernchristianacademy.com for more information.
We have all heard the term, “you reap what you sow.” This is a biblical term and it is magnified throughout the Scriptures. The choice made in the Garden has plagued humanity and all creation (Rom. 8:22). The Israelites were promised the land of Canaan, but had to choose whom they were going to serve (Josh. 24:15). Jesus taught that no one can serve two masters (Matt. 6:24). We just cannot escape the choices in our lives. The question is…Are we cognitively aware of the choices and consequences before us every day.
The education of our children is a nonnegotiable choice that must be made. If you don’t make it, someone else will. School choice week is all about the options available to parents for the education of their children. For many, the choice is between a free worldly indoctrination that is counter to biblical values and morals or accepting the cost of an education that maintains a high standard, both morally, emotionally, and spiritually. When parents make the choice to attend Western Christian Academy, they know WCA will not compromise on its high standard, thus elevating the life of the student and family.
Think Of This When Making Choices…
“He is no fool who gives what he cannot keep to gain that which he cannot lose.”
Jim Elliot, martyred for the salvation of the Auca (Wuaorani) Indians

Being homeschooled by Western Christian Academy allowed me to find motivation, ambition, and independence within myself. I am more than grateful to have been a part of this online academy during my 4 years of high school and I wouldn’t have wanted it to be any other way.
Thank you Western Christian Academy!”

A Homeschool Parent’s Reasons To Homeschool
God’s heart wants children who are like Caleb, whose hearts are fully His. He wants Daniel’s who can take on a king and stand strong in the midst of ungodliness. He wants Joseph’s who, although they are falsely accused and put in places of confinement, are godly examples of excellence and service to the King of Kings. He wants Shadrach’s, Meshach’s, and Abednego’s who will not bow to the idols of the day, even in the face of death. He wants obedient Esther’s who aren’t afraid to trust their God for miraculous deliverance. He longs for Timothy’s, who from a young age, are bathed in the Scripture from infancy and are ready to preach the Word and serve the Lord. God wants the hearts of the fathers to be returned to their children and the hearts of the mothers to be joyful mothers of children, so that a Godly heritage might be raised up for His glory and divine plans and purposes.

Note from a Parent: “My children have attended Western Christian Academy for the last 4 years. My youngest started with kindergarten, and my oldest started in junior high.
I have a child with autism. Homeschool was…and still is the best option for my children. Not only have my children finished each year with A’s and B’s, they’re able to take their time learning the materials. Having Bible study daily is a plus! As a parent, I rely on the payment options Western Christian Academy offers. I highly recommend this accredited Christian school.”
Meet the Staff Corner
I have been in education for nearly 15 years. I’ve taught in the online setting and in multiple public school grade levels. I believe this robust experience allows me to bring a unique perspective to the learning environment.
I have been married for 17 years to my husband Jared and have two children. My son JJ is in 7th grade and my daughter Payton is in the 6th grade. We love spending time together laughing. traveling, and serving the Lord.
My name is Jacob Lensch and I am a 5th grader at Western Christian Academy. I am very thankful that I can go to WCA because I am able to stay home with my family, while doing school work. I really enjoy being able to talk to my teacher without the distractions when I need help in school. Some things I like to do are spending time with my dad. We like to look at muscle cars because we think they are really cool. We enjoy going to car shows and learning about them. I also like to draw because it is fun to create different things. Sometimes, I draw what I see in my head like outer space or cartoon characters. I really like to paint pictures with my grandpa. He taught me and my two younger brother how to spray paint.
My brother’s names are Caleb and Wyatt. Together we like to jump on our trampoline outside and play fun games. We play tag, hide and seek, and we like to build forts in our backyard. Going to WCA has allowed me to play and have fun with them during our recess and lunch time. Thank you WCA so much for everything that you have done to help me in school.
I am 11 years old and I enjoy drawing. Drawing allows me to create new ideas and put my thoughts onto paper. When I grow up, I would like to join the Coast Guard! I think the Coast Guard would be exciting and it allows me to help people and keep them safe.
Thank you Jacob for sharing this very special poster and story with us.
We believe that God has an amazing and exciting plan for your life.
Here is what Jacob shared about how he created his poster.
My poster is a picture of outer space with children’s hands. I am trying to show that when you get lost, kidnapped, or separated from your family, it must feel like you are in a dark place, with no one to help, just like being ‘lost in space’. The materials I used were spray paint, bottle caps and container lids to shape the planet’s texture and crumbled plastic bags to create the planet’s texture. I made the stars by spray painting onto my fingers and flicking the paint on to the sheet of paper. Hopefully this encourages people to bring our missing children home.
A NOTE FROM JACOB’S PARENTS:
We are so grateful that God has guided our family to WCA. This school has not just provided our children with a wonderful Christian education, but it is currently teaching them how to work independently. They are learning how to manage their individual time, while moving at their own personal pace. My husband and I are two full-time working parents and we wanted more than just an online school. We wanted them to have a teacher that they could seek help from when needed. With WCA, they have found just that! Their teacher is amazing, and the staff is wonderful! The opportunity for our son to participate in this competition is a great example of everything Western Christian Academy has to offer!
