The King's Academy

TKA was designed as a parent-partner education model.  The foundation of this partnership begins with parents who take responsibility for their children`s education and desire a Biblical worldview with a rigorous curriculum.
The King`s Academy is a private covenant-based school with a rigorous college preparatory curriculum.
Our unique model offers quality instruction and parent (satellite teacher) involvement in academics through a combination of on campus instruction and satellite day supervision by a satellite teacher.
