Shining Light Academy - Different in Purpose

Different in Philosophy

Our mission at SLA is to educate and train students in truth and righteousness. By doing this, we support and strengthen the family and the local Bible believing church. We believe it is important not only to know how to make a living but also how to live.

Different in Staff

Each staff member is a born again Christian and has a sincere love for young people. Each teacher is not only professionally qualified for his area of responsibility but is also spiritually qualified. Our faculty will work with you to help your child reach his maximum spiritual and academic potential.

Different in Values

God's Word is truth. All academics are measured by the Word of God. God's Word and His moral nature are absolute. Absolutes, such as honesty, integrity, purity and modesty are aggressively taught. Our inspiring elementary and high school chapel services help address the student's spiritual maturity.

Different in Academics and Curriculum

The A Beka Book curriculum provides SLA with an exceptionally strong academic program. Average standardized testing scores are consistently above national and state averages. SLA graduates are accepted at colleges and universities throughout the country. Grades 4-12 compete annually at fine arts competitions. High school students are offered opportunities to qualify for The American Christian Honor Society (ACHS) and assist with development of the SLA yearbook.

Different in Discipline

The school's desire is to exalt Christ in every facet of our programs which includes academics, conduct, dress, attitude and all other aspects of behavior. A good educational environment demands firm, but loving Biblical discipline. SLA awards students with Privilege Card trips twice a year. A Privilege Card is earned through good conduct.
