Introduction
Welcome to Westlake Christian Academy! We are happy you have chosen to be a part of our family and trust you will consider it a privilege to attend a school whose mission is to put Jesus Christ first in the classroom and challenge students to honor Him in thought, word, and deed. No doubt you will take pride in your school and be thankful to God for His goodness to us. At WCA, our faculty members are selected not only for their teaching ability and academic background, but also because of their Godly lives and desire to support your family’s biblical responsibility to raise children to love the Lord. Under WCA’s direction, students are discipled in their Christian lives to be submissive to authority and to the Lord Jesus Christ and are prepared for life beyond the walls of the school.
This handbook has been produced to help our parents and students understand the principles, practices, and policies that govern Westlake Christian Academy. These guidelines are based on faithful and historical Biblical principles, practical considerations, and institutional preferences. Admittedly, a handbook cannot address every situation, so where nothing specific is stated for a situation, please ask the school administration for appropriate guidance. Every family that enrolls in WCA accepts and commits to following these policies with a cheerful spirit. We look forward to serving with you to the glory of God in the education of children.
