New Life Christian Academy first opened in 1997. Our desire was to simply change the life of a child otherwise destined to fail because of behavioral or academic shortfalls. Since then the academy has provided a structured yet nurturing academic environment for over 600 students. Many of these students were "at risk" for failure in the traditional school setting.

Many of the students admitted into the academy are no longer permitted to re-enter public schools or other private schools in our community. Others were not excelling academically in their previous schools, for various reasons. Needless to say, the traditional school setting is not meeting the needs of many of these "at risk" youth. Statistics have shown that focusing more on the individual needs of the child increases their chances of achieving academic success and of becoming positive successful members of our community. This can be accomplished by placing these children in a smaller school setting, such as New Life Christian Academy.
