WHO WE ARE

GETTING TO KNOW KINGDOM

Kingdom Academy, established in 1990, is a private school which operates with the purpose of providing quality education anchored on Christian values to PreK-5th grade students. The uniqueness of our educational program is the product of an excellent academic program complemented with financial literacy concepts that pairs business approaches with hands-on methods cultivating in the student an understanding their impact in the ever-changing global economy. To that end, the school conscientiously selects qualified staff with the capacity to implement our differentiated gifted curriculum designed to address the students’ individual characteristics, needs, abilities, and interests. Kingdom Academy views itself as a support system for the child and the family, and invites the participation of the parents and community in the program development.

MISSION STATEMENT

Kingdom Academy is committed to cultivate leaders equipped with a sound academic education, rich of real-world experiences, to become God’s ambassadors and change agents in the world. To that end, the school’s leadership team has developed the School Affirmations:

Discipleship
As a member of the body of Christ, we instill in our school culture the responsibility to share the gospel of Jesus Christ in our city, in our nation, and in our world (Matthew 28:18-20, 2 Timothy 2:1-2, John 13:34-35).
