A Word From Our Head of School
|
|
|
Dear LCA Families,
The LCA team and I are so excited about Dr. Matt Johnson’s appointment as the new Head of School. Matt has extensive experience in Christian education, having served in various roles over the years. He and his wife, Andrea, are confident that the opportunity to lead Life Christian Academy is precisely what God has been preparing them for.
Matt's passion for Christian education makes him an excellent fit for our school community. We are already collaborating and working on a seamless transition plan as he prepares to take on his new leadership role. We are still working on finalizing his arrival date and will keep the community informed as soon as we have more information to share.
As we enter the second semester, I want to reflect on the achievements and growth of our students. We are immensely proud of their accomplishments and the dedication they have shown in their academic pursuits and extracurricular activities. The collaboration between parents, teachers, and students is truly inspiring, and we look forward to continued success in the coming months.
We thank you for your ongoing support and commitment to Life Christian Academy. Together, we can ensure that our students thrive academically, spiritually, and socially.
Joyfully,
Michelle Buntain Cox
Interim Head of School
