About Our School

Lighthouse Private Christian Academy began in 2004 after Hurricane Ivan. We were blessed enough to have a Pastor allow us to lease space in his church. Pastor Robert Dekker, from Concord PCA and his Elder, Norm Self, gave us the momentum that laid the foundation for our success.

We now operate with over 3500 square feet in a beautiful facility located next door to the Gulf Breeze ZOO of Northwest Florida. Lighthouse is a strong supporter of the ZOO and our partnership allows us to expand learning to “hands on” education related to animals and environmental issues. We, at LPCA, provide a multi-faceted, exceptional education to our students while assisting families in fostering their child’s spiritual development. We provide a safe, nurturing environment with loving, positive teachers that reinforce Christian principles. In combination with a Christian instructional curriculum, we give students the opportunity to pursue their own open-ended research using high-quality materials.

We are the only Non-denominational Christian School in the area. As we enter 2011-12, we are now accepting applications for children ages 3 through 13. (Grades pre k – 7th).

The mission of Lighthouse Christian Academy is to provide a curriculum that will lead to academic excellence, while educating the students from Christian families in accordance with the Biblical world view for a life-long service to Christ.
