The King's Academy has played a pivotal role in my and my children's lives. A top-notch education in a safe, loving, Christian environment, is more than we could have hoped for. We got all of this and more at TKA.

I highly recommend The King's Academy. I have had my three children attend and all three children have different learning styles. TKA met each child at their level of need. My children have graduated and have received full scholarships at their universities for both academics and athletics.
There is no other place I would have had my kids attend than TKA!
