Academics That Inspire Excellence
A Private Christian Education for K-12
Education is more than gaining knowledge. It’s about shaping students through a Biblical worldview that guides every subject, from core classes to electives.
At Wake Christian Academy, we offer a rigorous K-12 education that meets and exceeds the standards set by Cognia and the Association of Christian Schools International (ACSI). Whether your child is in private kindergarten, elementary, middle, or high school, they’ll be challenged to reach their full potential in a Christ-centered environment.
As a trusted private Christian school in Raleigh, NC, we partner with families like yours to equip students academically and spiritually — preparing them to lead with integrity, wisdom, and faith. Discover how Wake Christian Academy can help your child thrive in learning and life.
Kindergarten – Building a Positive Foundation

- Field trips to a dairy farm and a local strawberry farm
- Thematic studies for each season

Elementary School – Nurturing a Passion for Learning
Our curriculum is designed to help students master the fundamentals in early elementary school and add deeper layers of knowledge as they grow older. Thematic studies, special projects, field trips, and after-school clubs help students develop a passion for learning.
Highlights include:
- Special projects, such as Days of Creation, Colonial Day, Invertebrates, and Recycling
- Scripture memory activities, daily Bible studies, and weekly chapel
- Fine arts, including chorus starting in third grade and band and strings starting in fourth grade
