I'm Alumni (05) and current parent of 3rd graders. I always loved my experience as a student and am thankful to pass down the blessing of Torrington Christian Academy to my children as well! My children actually started in homeschool and transitioned to school - the experience has been very positive. The staff show dedication, professionalism, and care. The atmosphere and education at TCA is priceless!
