My name is Valerie Salinas, and I have had the privilege of serving as the Director of Admissions at KCA for the past four years. Alongside the principal, I dedicate all of my time to this school ministry, pouring our hearts into its growth and success. King's Christian Academy was founded in 2017 by Principal Jessica Mireles and her best friend, Emma Arrellano, in response to God's calling to start this ministry. In 2019, our beloved co-founder, Emma Arrellano, passed away, leaving Principal Jessica Mireles with the immense responsibility of running the school on her own. Despite this profound loss, Jessica has shown remarkable strength, dedication, and resilience in continuing to lead and nurture our school community. Emma's legacy lives on in our hearts, inspiring us to carry forward her vision and passion for King's Christian Academy. The school began with approximately 40 students, but due to challenges posed by the pandemic, our enrollment decreased slightly. Currently, we are blessed to have 30 students ranging from kindergarten to 12th grade.
At KCA, our mission is to cultivate academic excellence, character formation, and spiritual growth, equipping our students to make a positive impact in the world guided by Christian values. Over the years, we have witnessed countless examples of the transformative power of our school's holistic approach to education and spiritual growth. From academic achievements to acts of kindness and service, our students consistently demonstrate the values of compassion, integrity, and faith in action. Our teachers and staff at KCA have demonstrated remarkable commitment and sacrificial dedication. Over the past seven years of the school's existence, they have shown their willingness and generosity by donating a significant portion of their salaries. This selfless act reflects their deep passion for the mission and vision of our school, and we are truly grateful for their unwavering support and devotion to our students' education and well-being.
However, as we strive to maintain and enhance the quality of education we offer, we face financial challenges in meeting various needs within our school community. These needs include providing scholarships for deserving students, upgrading our facilities to create conducive learning environments, and expanding our curriculum to meet the evolving needs of our students in a rapidly changing world. Your generous support could make a significant difference in the lives of our students and the future of our school. By investing in KCA, soon to be called Kingdom Academy, Discipleship School, you are investing in the next generation of leaders who will carry forth the light of Christ in all they do. We kindly ask for your consideration in making a donation to support our mission. Your contribution, no matter the size, will be deeply appreciated and will directly impact the lives of our students.
"God's Vision... Our Future..." represents our acknowledgment of God's sovereignty and guidance as we look ahead to the future of our school. We trust in His divine vision and seek to align our plans and aspirations with His will. It serves as a reminder that our ultimate purpose and direction come from Him, and we eagerly anticipate the opportunities and blessings He has in store for us as we continue to serve and glorify Him through our educational endeavors.
