General Educational Information |

WOGCA uses a combination of the A Beka/Bob Jones/Prentice Hall/Positive Action for Christ curricula coupled with supportive material from the list of N.C. Adopted Text Books. The curriculum in totality is a God-centered approach to education and is geared toward the average student. However, the elementary grades are usually on a level of one to two and a half years more advanced than the public school system curriculum. Many children enrolled in K5 will generally be reading words as well as writing in cursive by the end of the year, and first graders will be reading complete sentences by mid-year. We teach reading by use of phonics.
We hold that the classroom has two immediate authorities: the teacher and the textbooks. Both must be God-centered and should challenge not only the mental capacities of the child but also the spiritual capabilities.
Word of God Christian Academy’s commitment to education, and to the belief that all children have a right to an excellent education, is reflected in our mission and history attests to our success. We focus on results, both tangible and intangible. WOGCA’s tangible results can be seen in improving test scores and our high percentage of college bound graduates. Intangible results include those “light bulb moments” when a student realizes they are able to comprehend a concept they once thought was impossible, a student that was once badly failing who is now passing; or the smile on that parent’s face, who sees the first sign of their child’s greatly improved academics and attitude. It is the devotion to creating theses results that drive us every day.
We realize that, as a parent, you only want what’s best for your child and you recognize that their education plays a key role in their future successes. WOGCA is committed to providing the best educational experience possible for all children and we build our academic program with student success as the primary measurement.
We hold that truth and reality are one as revealed in God’s Word. We do not believe that the Bible only contains truth…we believe that the Bible is all truth. Therefore, we teach every subject from a Christian perspective—in light of God’s Word.
