Lexington Christian Academy

LCA’s Middle School program is the beginning of a journey to discover who you are and how you learn. Through a classical program integrated with interdisciplinary opportunities across the curriculum, our program teaches 6th-8th graders to ask difficult questions, tackle ambitious academic goals, and develop a Christ-centered confidence in their gifts and abilities.

LCA’s Upper School program extends the skills and lessons learned and Middle School, preparing students to succeed in education and life after graduation. College advising and rigorous AP, honors, and prep courses, combined with athletics and arts programs help students find the opportunities that allow them to use and leverage their gifts throughout their future.

AECIP is a one-year boarding program specifically designed for 7th and 8th grade international students. The goal of the program is for students to develop functional English fluency before moving on to Upper School. This ten-month long course of study is designed to prepare students for success in an English-speaking college preparatory school. The curriculum combines core American Studies, Academic English, STEM, and Arts, Music, and Physical Education.

Foundations of Academic English is a course  for students who are still developing the vocabulary and writing skills needed for success in a college prep program and American universities. Students learn how to structure papers, document sources, do research, and use English effectively.  Communication skills are taught through vocabulary,  grammar and in analyzing literature.  Students learn what questions to ask and do formal presentations using powerpoint or other appropriate apps.  Research skills are taught in the context of using databases, academic libraries and documenting sources.
