ADMISSIONS PROCESS

Alliance Christian Academy believes in educating the whole child to include high academic, social, physical and emotional development within each child (Luke 2:52, “And Jesus grew in wisdom, and in stature and in favor with God and man.”). This educational standard is only accomplished through a close partnership with parents and families and causes the decision for our school to be an important one, as every school does not meet the needs of every child. Please take some time to read the information presented on our website before proceeding with the steps listed below.

Alliance Christian Academy has implemented and follows a thorough admissions process in an attempt to assist families who align with our mission and vision as laid out on our website. As you walk through this journey and discern the best educational environment for your children and family, please remember that we are here to walk with you!

Alliance Christian Academy and Little Sprouts Preschool are committed to diversity and actively seek students and families who can contribute to the mission of the school and who will benefit from its education. Enrollment is open to all students of any race, color, nationality or ethnic origin who meet the entrance requirements and who strive both in conduct and achievement to maintain satisfactory progress.
