We believe that the Bible (Scriptures) – the written Old and New Testaments – is the inspired, infallible, and authoritative Word of God. We recognize these Scriptures as the supreme and final standard for Christian education and all other matters of faith and life.
Some of the significant teachings of the Scriptures that we hold essential are:
1. There is one God, eternally existent in three persons: God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit.
2. The world and man were created by a direct act of God.
3. Jesus Christ:
-
- Was fully man and fully God.
- Was begotten of the Holy Spirit and born of the Virgin Mary.
- Lived a sinless life.
- Performed miracles.
- Died on a cross for each individual, giving us life.
- Was bodily resurrected from the dead.
- Ascended to the right hand of the Father.
- Will personally return in power and glory as promised in the Scriptures.
4. All who, by faith, receive Jesus Christ as their Savior from sin and death, and make Him Lord of their lives are given a new life of the Holy Spirit, thereby becoming children of God.
5. Both the saved and the lost will be resurrected; the saved to everlasting life and the lost to everlasting damnation.
6. Each child (and each parent) is a unique person, created by God in His own image, and is loved and cherished by Him. For this reason, each child (and parent) is worthy of individual time, effort and prayer.
7. We believe that the term marriage has only one meaning: The uniting of one man and one woman in a single, exclusive union, as delineated in Scripture (Genesis 2:18-25). We believe that God intends sexual intimacy to occur only between a man and woman who are married to one another (1 Corinthians 6:18, 7:2-5; Hebrews 13:4). We believe that God’s command is that there be no sexual intimacy outside of or apart from a marriage between a man and a woman.
8. We believe that God wonderfully foreordained and immutably created each person as either male or female in conformity with their biological sex. These two distinct yet complementary genders together reflect the image and nature of God.
Every Wednesday KCA students spend time in worship and study with a local pastor.

Core Values
Core values are KCA’s guiding principles that direct the school in fulfilling its mission. These essential and enduring tenets are not to be compromised for financial or short-term expediency. These values define who we are as an institution, how our resources are allocated, and are used in long-term planning for the health of our institution.
- Academic Excellence KCA values academic and leadership excellence and will continually develop and assess our cirriculum to ensure that our students are empowered with the skills and tools necessary to fulfill their God-given potential. (2 Timothy 2:15; Colossians 3:17; Luke 6:40)
- Spiritual Development KCA values salvation and discipleship. Children are taught the importance of having and maintaining a relationship with God by learning how to pray, study the Bible, worship, become good stewards, and serve others. (Philippians 4:8; Colossians 3:12-14; 2 Timothy 3:16)
- Partnership with Parents KCA values the Biblical responsibility entrusted to parents to “train up” their child and is dedicated to partnering with families, churches, and the community in the educational process. (Deuteronomy 6:7; Proverbs 22:6; Ephesians 6:14)
- Faculty and Staff Development KCA values a faculty and staff who model and inspire excellence through their Christ-like example, intellectual curiosity, lifelong learning, and leadership. (Proverbs 1:2-3; Colossians 1:9-12, 28; Colossians 3:17)
- Board Leadership KCA values biblical stewardship. As stewards of the resources God has given us, KCA is responsible for using wisdom in the decisions made. With prayer for the Holy Spirit’s guidance, we have faith that our decisions regarding policies, procedures, and financial stewardship will honor the Lord’s will. (1 Corinthians 4:2; 1 Peter 4:10; James 1:5)
