TESTAMONIALS

"Though academics are important, it is the Word of God that has seen us through our darkest hours. Never once has Cameron run to her math book for comfort. . . . Not one time have Conner's spelling words lifted our spirits. It is God's Word and His Word alone that has given us comfort, strength, hope, assurance, peace, and joy. Life is hard. I want my children to have everything they need when facing the storms that tomorrow will bring. Let me assure you that [this school] equips our children well. They receive a good academic education, but with that they also receive what is most important. They receive a great spiritual foundation. So, when their little world is rocked, when their dreams are shattered, when their lives are all in pieces, they know what to do. They have been taught to pray. They know what to believe. They have learned God's promises, and they know who to run have been introduced to Jesus."-Schultz, Glen. Kingdom Education. Nashville: LifeWay Press, 1998. (pg. 69)"Christians today find themselves in a similar situation as the nation of Judah did. We do all of the religious sacrifices that we think Christians should dogo to church, participate in praise and worship, give the tithe and our offerings and listen to sermonsbut it seems as if God does not receive these sacrifices with pleasure and actually disregards them. For example, we pray and ask God to heal our land, and yet the moral decline in our country only increases in intensity. We ask ourselves why God isn't paying attention to our sacrifices and answering our prayers. What was true for Judah is true for us today. Our homes are in shambles. -Divorce runs rampant. The result is that very few homes are producing godly offspring. Parents must grasp the reality that this homework assignment is so important to God that He does not receive our religious sacrifices with pleasure when we do not follow His instructions in raising our children."-Schultz, Glen. Kingdom Education. Nashville: LifeWay Press, 1998. (pg. 62) "No education is complete without emphasis placed on spiritual priorities. W.C.A. provided a strong scriptural foundation as well as preparing me academically for nursing school."-Reba WagnerRegistered NurseAlumnus/Parent of 9th and 5th "After trying another school for two years, our daughter said she wanted to return to WCA. We are excited the Word is instilled in her NOW, so she will have the right path to follow LATER! Knowing we live in a highly academic world, we choose this school for its updated materials coupled with godly morals."-Jeff and Tara GrayYouth PastorsParents of Graduate"Our first and foremost reason for selecting WCA for our childrens education is the Chirst-centered atmosphere that WCA creates. Following in a close second position is the low teacher to child ratio which allows our children to have very individualized attention and instruction. We are strong supporters of WCA and the way that they have partnered with us as parents to raise up our children in the way they should go, both in character and education."-Bobby and Jenny WilliamsAssociation Management Parents of Graduate, 11th and 6th

About Us

ABOUT US

"Where there is no vision, the people perish" (Proverbs 29:18). In 1977, the members of Wanchese Assembly of God caught a glimpse of a vision for its children - a Christian school, with Christian teachers, and a Christian curriculum. Pastor Robert D. Smith, Sr. became the "smith that bloweth the coals in the fire and that bringeth forth an instrument for his work" (Isaiah 54:16) and Wanchese Christian Academy was born.The first year in operation, 1978, students were enrolled in grades K5 through 12. Rev. William Skipper was the principal, guiding WCA through the precepts of the A.C.E. program. With polyester uniforms, ties, and new paces, the school was launched! Each succeeding pastor benefited the school. In 1986, under the pastorate of Rev. John Chase, Sr., WCA had a change of principal to Allen Kister and a change in curriculum to A-Beka bringing combined grades and open classroom teaching. Also, under Rev. Chase, a sports program was initiated and school spirit blossomed. It was during the growth spurt in 1989 that Rev. Robert (Bob) Smith, Jr. became principal.Dr. David Dalton became the pastor in 1994. He and his wife, Ruth, with the whole-hearted help of many of the church members, brought into existence the Whole Ministries Center, a complex that houses a lovely kitchen, snack area, and dining room, as well as a long-dreamed-of gymnasium. Under Dr. Dalton's ministry, K4 was added to WCA. Upon the departure of Rev. Smith in 2003, WCA was placed under the leadership of Mrs. Cheree Peters. Mrs. Peters held this position until 2005. Today, WCA is under the leadership of alumna, Rachel Meekins Thompson. Our VisionWanchese Christian Academy seeks to reach children in this local area through a Christ-centered environment. Our academic program covers the basic "Three R's" (Reading, Writing, and Arithmetic) in addition to a foundation of Christian living!Educating Over 30 YearsSince 1978 Wanchese Christian Academy has become both established and equipped to teach grades Preschool through Twelfth. Although sponsored by Wanchese Assembly of God, enrollment is open to all students who desire Christian education regardless of race, nationality or denomination. Attending WCA is an excellent opportunity to fulfill the academic requirements while encouraging the teachings of Jesus Christ!Extra Curricular OpportunitiesWCA also encourages hands-on-learning experiences. Desiring students to excel in all areas of life, not just academic, the teachers strive to develop the mental, physical, and spiritual aspects of the individual. Numerous activities present challenges throughout the year.Plays/SkitsRecitals (Instrumental/Voice)Chapel ServicesYearbook StaffField TripsCommunity fundraisersArt ContestsEtiquette LuncheonDress up daysAbout the CurriculumDesiring to pursue excellence in education, Wanchese Christian Academy joins thousands of Christian schools that use the A Beka curriculums.
