White Rock Christian Academy

White Rock Christian Academy exists to inspire and cultivate citizens of Godly character who transform their world for Christ. This core purpose is more than a desire to see our students graduate and have a diploma, we seek to prepare students for life by engaging their minds, their talents, and their hearts. We inspire and cultivate citizens of Godly character who transform their world for Christ. We can accomplish our purpose if there is harmony between the goals of the school and those of the home. WRCA exists to assist Christian parents in the fulfillment of their Biblical mandate to “train up children in the way they should go” (Proverbs 22:6).

We believe all students deserve a quality Christian education through a holistic approach as our four core program pillars serve as the foundation of the educational curriculum. It is best described as a program of education that is comprehensive, holistic, and nurtures excellence. Each faith-based program pillar (academics, athletics, arts and service) focuses on an area dedicated to furthering student growth and development while building a holistic education from a Biblical Christian worldview.

In all that WRCA does as an organization, and in particular for the Board and Administration, we desire to be held accountable on the basis of our values. We are also asking everyone in our school community to adopt and uphold these values as we partner in achieving the purpose for which WRCA exists. Our values are:

• Be Christ Centered
• Glorify God through the pursuit of excellence
• Honour passion, creativity and initiative
• Provide a holistic education from a Biblical Christian worldview
• Form resilient and mature followers of Christ

WRCA is planning to expand to accommodate over 600 students with two classes per grade, and construction has begun on phase one of the new building – the Junior School. Also, included in phase one are two music rooms and two art rooms for both Junior and Senior School students. Phase one was completed on September 2018 and phase two, the Senior School, was completed on December 2020. A playing field plan is in the works, followed by Phase three which tentatively includes new gymnasiums, a theater, cafeteria, and administration offices.

White Rock Christian Academy offers a Christian education to approximately 460 students from Junior Kindergarten to Grade 12 and has a staff of approximately 60, including certified teachers and support staff. WRCA is divided into two schools, each with its own academic principal who report to the Head of School. The Junior School includes Junior Kindergarten to Grade 5, and the Senior School includes Grade 6 to Grade 12.

The main building consists of 40,000 sq. ft. accommodating classrooms for JK- Grade 1, Grades 9-12, a gym, computer lab, library, music room, and chapel. Currently, there are also portable classrooms housed on the property. At White Rock Christian Academy, we utilize the International Baccalaureate® (IB) program, which gives our students the best advantage in preparing them for the future. The integrated learning and structured approach provides students with a competitive advantage in that they are better prepared, more confident and have superior time management, organizational and research skills.
