ACADEMICS
A CHRISTIAN EDUCATION
Westshore Christian Academy is a Christian school that offers a Christ-centered, Bible-based curriculum that will teach students to honor God in all they do.
WCA will use God's Word in our teaching as the basis for everything we do. From academics like Math and Sciences, to character development, and equipping students to serve as they grow into adulthood.
Regular opportunities will be provided for student to express their love for Christ in service to others in their classrooms and community.
Westshore Christian Academy is a non-denominational school that offers a Christ-centered education for students from many different religious backgrounds. We are also an open enrollment school, inviting students and families in who may not have a church affiliation. All the families at WCA understand that their child will learn from a Christian worldview.
Connecting with the community around us we are hopeful that pastors from around the area will come in to provide a weekly Chapel service where students can learn about worship, prayer, and what it means to be a child of God.
