“Train up a child in the way he should go; even when he is old he will not depart from it.” – Proverbs 22:6

We believe parents have the right and responsibility to educate their children as they see best and as God has directed. Parents have the most control over this in a homeschool-type setting because the parent knows what their children are learning. Parents will make all the educational decisions for their children.

The Following Grade(s) Are Now Waitlisted.

Families may still register, however children will only be assessed if a space becomes available.

SCA Important Information

Parents are their own private school and will file a simple Private School Affidavit (PSA) each year with the state to protect themselves and the SCA ministry. Support will be provided to guide parents through this process. As a private school, parents will hold all their children’s records, attendance, and grades. Trainings will be provided to help parents with record keeping. SKYLINE CHRISTIAN ACADEMY will not maintain records.

Skyline Church wants the freedom to support families and their children in growing and learning in all subject areas with a Biblical worldview embedded. We want to support parents in raising up the next generation for the Lord and protecting the freedoms of our parents and children. SKYLINE CHRISTIAN ACADEMY Ministry is only open to Skyline Church Members and their children or grandchildren at this time.

Skyline Church members become the intergenerational community that will come alongside the parents to help raise, mentor and teach our children.

SKYLINE CHRISTIAN ACADEMY is a ministry, not a school. All staff members and all volunteers must pass an extensive background check. All employees will complete a rigorous background check. All of the teachers and support staff will be interviewed first by an academy team and then with Skyline pastors. There will be ongoing review processes and monitoring of all the adults in this ministry.
