Student Grade Levels
WCA is unique in we don’t label our students by what grade they are in rather than what level of academics they are in. Each of our of students are unique and we believe there is no one way to teaching or style of learning. It is our goal to educate each student to the level of achieving high success in all their education and pursue whatever God’s calling on their life weather that be a Career, Trade School, Community College or University.

What are the classes like?
Classes at WCA are very active and hand-on. We believe that good education involves the whole person – not just the mind and academics, but all other aspects as well – character development, leadership, and social skills.  While much of our direct effort is focused on academics, we also recognize that character, social and other aspects are equally as important. It is our goal to make each class at WCA unique to our students by providing them instruction in a fun, dynamic, exciting upbeat way. We feel with our unique approach through lower class sizes, multi-grade classrooms, individualized hands-on instruction, and quality curriculum, we engage our students in learning that supersedes the traditional approach.
