Happy 4th of July, Bulldogs! 🇺🇸

We are in need of two families to host international students! We have a great opportunity to be the hands and feet of Jesus as we have two high school boys each looking for a home for the upcoming school year. Please email [email protected] for more information.

Tonight, we celebrate our Class of 2024 as they graduate! Join us at The Shepherd’s Church at 7pm. Processional will begin at 6:55pm.

Oh the places you will go! Today, our graduating seniors walked the halls for our annual elementary processional. Many hugs and smiles were shared between our Class of 2024 and their elementary teachers, staff, family and friends. What a precious memory!

Today our students will receive their Yearbook! In honor of that fun Bulldog tradition, enjoy a poem written by class of ‘74 alumna, Susan Wilder Chappell, when she was on the yearbook staff …

‘Twas Annual Day at WCA
Yearbooks were signed throughout the day.
But you were sitting alone in the room
Your brother had your book— you wished he’d bring it back soon!
He got all his autographs, but you were left out
With nothing to remember your friends by, you began to pout,
“Why didn’t I buy my own annual in September?
Now I don’t have signatures to remember!”
The moral is, before November 1st,
Buy an extra annual, or you’re in for the worst.

HS Student Council elections are underway! This morning, the sophomore class heard from their peers as the candidates shared their campaign speeches and goals for junior year.

Join us for an evening of cool jazz and sweet desserts as WCA’s Gideon’s Line jazz ensemble presents a program of jazz and big band music. Admission is free but donations are accepted!

Thank you to our corporate sponsors!

The Wake Christian Academy Class of 1974 recently held their 50-year class reunion! Once a Bulldog, always a Bulldog!

What’s been happening around campus?
🐾 MS Robotics came up with ideas for robots that would glorify God and make the world a better place. They drew pictures and designed a small model from legos. They presented their projects to a panel of WCA Faculty & Staff. Way to go!
🐾 Fifth grade presented their annual living wax museum project to their families! Great job, students. How fun!
🐾 Fourth grade took their families on a tour across North Carolina. From the mountains to the coast, our students took them on a day trip they won’t soon forget. Great job, fourth grade!
🐾 Our freshman class created solar eclipse projectors in physical science! How cool!

The countdown is on for our Class of 2024! This morning, they enjoyed the annual Senior Sunrise.
“But as for me, I will sing of Your strength; Yes, I will joyfully sing of Your faithfulness in the morning, For You have been my refuge And a place of refuge on the day of my distress.
Psalm 59:16

And His wonders in the deep.
