What it reported doing in 2024

No limits academy believes that god has created all things. Therefore, every person is the workmanship of god. We believe that god has prepared beforehand, great things to work out in the life of every individual (ephesians 2:10). We seek to draw out and nourish the full potential of every student by providing an environment for physical and academic growth. We believe that god's spirit works powerfully in the lives of those who love him. There is no physical, mental or emotional disability that can impede the work of god's spirit. We believe that god does not limit his power based on physical attributes (mark 10:27). We are humbled (philippians 2:10) to know that every life has limitless potential in god's plan (philippians 4:13, ephesians 3:20). No limits academy considers every student to be a vibrant, purpose-filled individual, deserving respect. Love and encouragement (1st thessalonians 5:9-14) the bible teaches that a true leader serves others (matthew 18:1-4, 20:26-28). Our teachers believe that every student is important and worthy of our services. Every student is an individual having specific needs and a specific style of communication. Our teachers are responsible to recognize these individual traits and provide a learning environment that encourages mental, emotional and physical wellbeing. We also believe that technology is a blessing that allows our students to cross physical boundaries. Every student is given the resources to creatively express themselves and grasp knowledge. In this environment, our teachers help every student to understand that they are valued by god and fully capable of achieving academic excellence.

Operating model

Revenue model
Earned-program. 95% of the money available for current operations came from fees and other program 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 - The filed numbers largely add up and a large share of available resources goes toward mission work. Some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered and expenses are high relative to revenue.
