The King's Academy is a Christ-centered day and boarding school reaching local, national and international students of all socioeconomic backgrounds, educating and preparing them academically, emotionally, physically, socially, and spiritually for the 21st Century.
The King's Academy is dedicated to preparing students for a life of maximum contribution to the cause of Christ. This preparation focuses on the mental, physical, spiritual, and social development of each student. Education equips the student with the training and values necessary for happy and successful living in a pluralistic and democratic society, both now and in the future. The academy's curriculum provides not only for the common and general needs of school youth, but also for individual interests and needs. The academy provides opportunities for students to develop healthy bodies and habits.
The individual's spiritual development coincides with his or her intellectual, social, and physical training. Providing opportunities for personal and individual response to the claims of Jesus Christ is a premise on which the academy is firmly based.
The academy provides an educational atmosphere in which Christian beliefs and values are freely examined and expressed.
