#WCA20STRONG

STRONG in Mission

The mission of our school is how we work to achieve our vision. Knowing and focusing on our mission is one of the many reasons we are #wca20strong! For 20 years, our mission has driven our staff, teachers, students, and families to prioritize what matters most to better WCA and move our school toward longevity and success.

WCA's Mission Statement - WCA provides an education of highest academic excellence and Christian spiritual development in a faith community that challenges the mind, prepares the heart, and nurtures the soul; encouraging students and families to represent Christ in action and service.

WCA's 1st graders celebrated St.Patrick's Day with a faith-based writing project. Who is worth more than gold? GOD!

EC students are learning about the “fruit of the Spirit” Scripture (Galatians 5:22, 23) with the book Jesus in Me

by Dandi Caley Mackall.

The cross in front of our school greets students each morning!
