Senior High
Our high school courses help develop students to think for themselves and make wise spiritual, home, and community decisions. Our goal is to give the students spiritual eyes so they can identify possibilities all around them. Most of our high school graduates choose to go to college, and WCA gives them a firm academic and spiritual foundation for their journey.
Our athletic programs offer students opportunities to engage their physical abilities while enhancing character and spirit. WCA sports offerings include basketball, baseball, soccer, softball, and volleyball.

Homeshool Enrollment in Individual Courses
Westlake Christian Academy provides a unique opportunity for homeschooled students. For many reasons, homeschooled students may want to take courses offered in a traditional setting. At Westlake, homeschoolers have the benefit of selecting individual junior high and high school courses from our master schedule. Commonly chosen courses are beginning, intermediate, or concert band, choir, foreign language, math, or science. On our website, look under Academics/Senior High/Course List to see all the available course offerings. Beyond the social interaction, as enrolled students, homeschoolers are also able to participate in certain extra-curricular activities such as athletic teams, Robotics, math club, and some other student events. Look under Athletics to view the competitive sports offered. Homeschooled students are welcome to attend our weekly chapels, too. Homeschooled students and families are accepted into Westlake through the same admissions process as full-time students. There is a per-course cost for the classes as well as for the band. Prices are posted on our Tuition & Fees Schedule. Please call the school office at 847-548-6209 for further details.
