I attended KAJA from Pre-K all the way through graduation, and I can honestly say it was one of the best experiences of my life. The school gave me some of my best memories and lifelong friendships. KAJA challenged me to grow both academically and spiritually- setting my foundation to love learning about the world and about God. I truly believe I am who I am today because of the foundation KAJA gave me. Not to mention, the teachers at KAJA are dedicated and determined to see every student succeed. They actually motivated me to become an educator myself! KAJA is more than just a school, it's my family. And I will always be grateful for the impact it had on my life.

KAJA is a school with an amazing faith based curriculum. They are welcoming to all, making the environment feel like home yet with a great educational foundation. The one-on-one student and teacher care is not something you'll get anywhere else! I would highly recommend this school to any parent who wants their children to thrive academically in a Christ centered atmosphere.

Since the age of four, my children have been attending this school and are now graduating high school. This school has been a blessing not only in my children's lives but also in our family. My children have grown spiritually and academically at KAJA. The teachers take their time to know each student and tailor their learning to their learning styles. My family and I appreciate KAJA.
