ACADEMICS

Lehigh Christian Academy has not adopted common core standards. Our courses are taught by teachers that are certified.  Beyond the state academic standards we endeavor to provide rigorous, Christ-centered, Biblically-integrated academics so that our students grow in the wisdom and knowledge of Jesus Christ and have a Biblical worldview.

PRE-K & KDG

LCA believes that a solid educational and spiritual foundation is needed for future success.

ELEMENTARY

LCA holds these years to be formative in building the foundation for educational and spiritual achievement.

MIDDLE SCHOOL

These years provide an opportunity to nurture students as they develop spiritually, physically and emotionally.

High School

LCA believes we should equip students with a Biblical worldview to take them where God leads them.

Bible Instruction:

Bible is a core subject at LCA. From an academic standpoint, our students take Bible from Pre-Kindergarten through 12th grade. However, God’s Word and the biblical worldview are the anchors from which we teach all subjects.

Curriculum for Bible:
Summit Ministries, Positive Action for Christ, ACSI and Bob Jones University

Pre-Kindergarten and Kindergarten

The foundation of all learning begins with their experiences in Pre-K and Kindergarten. Our program is rigorous and academic. Curriculum areas include Bible, language arts, mathematics, science, and social studies, as well as the development of motor and social skills. In addition, students begin classes in physical education, computer, library, Spanish, music, and art.

Elementary Academics

We believe that a solid educational foundation is needed for future academic success. We believe that Christian education is the partnership between parents and the school. Our program compels each student to be thoroughly grounded in necessary fundamentals of each core subject and we seek to maintain a high standard of academic achievement by instilling values and biblical principles. Students at LCA will take core subjects: math, social studies, science, language arts, handwriting, reading, spelling and Bible. They will take special classes in technology, music, art, library art and physical education.

Middle School Academics

At LCA, our faculty and staff partner with parents to help middle schoolers discover their security in Christ. Through attentive care, challenging curriculum, extracurricular activities in athletics and arts, and weekly biblical chapel services, your child will be equipped spiritually, academically, and socially. We provide a spiritual fall retreat and spring spiritual emphasis week that will encourage your student to dive deeper into their faith, as well as opportunities to serve. Students at LCA will take classes in mathematics, language arts, science ( earth science, life science, physical science), social studies ( US history and civics), humanities electives (chorus, theater, yearbook), and special electives of art, music, physical education and technology.

Learning Support

Learning support comes along side the student and gives them the extra support they need to be successful in the classroom.
