The month of February always brings to mind celebrations of LOVE! And, there is no greater love than that of Jesus Christ. This month, as you celebrate the loved ones in your life, take some time to consider the unconditional love that Jesus has for you!
"For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life." We are honored that you've selected to apply to The King's Academy. We consider it both an honor and a very important responsibility to be considered in the selection of a school to educate your son or daughter. Please accept our invitation to get to know us better through one of our campus visit opportunities: Shadow Days, Campus Tours, designed to give you and your student an inside look at The King's Academy. You can register for these visits below! And be sure to check out one of our upcoming Visual & Performing Arts events! We understand that choosing a school can be a difficult process. We are here to answer your questions, so please feel free to contact us. We'd love to talk to you about what makes The King's Academy a special place for your education. We are here for you, Monday-Friday, 8:00 a.m. - 3:45 p.m. Contact us at admissions@tka.org with any questions or to schedule a tour. Michele Duncan Admissions Director |

| STUDENT SHADOW: "KNIGHT FOR A DAY" Are Shadow Days Important? Absolutely! Changing schools may be a scary thought for your student. Most students would rather stay in familiar surroundings with students and teachers they already know. Our "Knight for a Day" Shadow Program allows your student to spend a day getting familiar with TKA's campus, faculty, and students. Take the mystery out of a new school by signing your student up for a visit! Every Tuesday and Friday at 8:30 a.m. - 2:50 p.m. Parents are invited to stay for a short introduction to TKA's Shadow Day from 8:30-8:55 a.m. Your student will be assigned to a Student Host who has been specifically selected and trained for this important role. |
