Academics

Jefferson Christian Academy offers excellent opportunities for students to grow academically.  Curriculum includes phonics, reading, math, language arts, science, social studies and Bible.  Enrichments are offered for PE, music, art, library, and Spanish.  Our teachers use many other resources to prepare our students to be lifelong learners. Manipulatives and interactive activities keep students engaged and excited about learning.  Technology, such as interactive white boards with Promethean software and iPads, help teachers to create new and innovative lessons that reinforce learning for greater retention.

Programs

JCA students participate in a variety of programs celebrating special events at our school.  Our Veterans Day Program honors all veteran's, but especially veterans from the families of the students.  Christmas is always a fun time of year and our Christmas Program focuses on the real meaning of Christmas.  Finally, we celebrate the end of the year with our grandparents on Grandparent's Day.  We love performing and honoring our grandparents on this special day.
