About Life Christian Academy
Who We Are
Life Christian Academy is a day school for students in Kindergarten through seventh grade. Our mission is take students and create Christian leaders for their generation, and we accomplish this with a strong academic program built on the foundations of the principles and truths of God's word.
​
God has a plan for each of our students, and we do our best to give them the tools to accomplish it.
LCA's History
After graduating from Rhema Bible Training Center, Pastor Andy White founded Faith Family Church in Chandler, AZ in 1994. Soon after, he started Life Christian Academy & Preschool in 2001.
Seeking to fill the void left by the public school system, Pastor Andy & Deb White created Life Christian Academy in 2014. Today, we strive to provide a balanced education with a Biblical worldview woven throughout each lesson.
​
In order to grow sustainably, LCA has grown incrementally by adding a grade level each year. Learn more about that here.

We Are A Covenant School
LCA is a collaborative learning community. that means we work together, with you, towards the same goal.
Amos 3:3
How You Fit In
At LCA we understand that we can only have a limited impact on your child's life. We believe that in order to form a solid foundation on God's Word, a child needs consistency at home and in the classroom.
​
When a strong partnership, or covenant, is formed between two parties both are agreeing to benefit and support the other. We want the best for our students and want to assure our parents that their child is taught Biblical principles consistently in the classroom.
​
Amos 3:3 says "Can two walk together, unless they are agreed?" We need to know that we are walking towards the same destination so that we walk together. This is why our Parent's Spiritual Agreement is necessary.
