Mission

Kingdom Classical Academy exists to glorify God by collaborating with parents to provide their children a distinctly Christ-centered, academically excellent, classical education that cultivates wisdom and virtue through a genuine love of truth, goodness, and beauty.

Our primary activity centers around a unique learning community whereby like-minded parents and teachers are committed to the spiritual formation of students through a Christ-centered, classical, collaborative model of education that combines on-campus and at home learning.

Operating model

Revenue model
Other-operating. 95% of the money available for current operations came from other operating revenue.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

SUPPORTED - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered and total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown.
