HAWK TALK


Oct 21-25

Dear WCA families,


On Tuesday, October 8, WCA hosted an ACSI accreditation visit. A visit is required for accredited schools that make a "substantive change" by adding another division, which in our case is the high school, beginning with 9th grade. The visit also included an inspection of the Annex, which is another substantive change.


WCA is thrilled to announce that ACSI has recommended the addition of 9th–12th grades to the school’s current accreditation cycle! We are incredibly grateful for our staff, students, and families for your dedication and commitment to WCA’s continued success.

HIGH SCHOOL UPDATE FROM ACSI VISIT


Representatives from ACSI visited October 8th and were anxious to see WCA's addition of 9th grade. They reviewed ninth grade's curriculum, schedule, course selections, Biblical integration into all courses, core values, extra curricular activities, high school policies, and much more. It was a successful visit that culminated in ACSI's recommendation for our high school's accreditation!


We are thankful for all you've done to support our expansion into high school, and also for your ongoing support of your children and our educational endeavors at WCA.


With gratitude,

WCA Administration
