Community Academy

KAI Community Academy · 2026–2027

Keep the freedom.
Add the community.

A purposeful Tuesday for homeschool families who want strong classes, Christian fellowship, and room to remain fully in charge of their child’s education.

Homeschooling, strengthened

More than classes. A day of belonging.

Community Academy brings together the parts of education that are often hardest to create alone.

Students learn with peers, move their bodies, develop practical skills, gather around Scripture, and build meaningful relationships—while parents retain responsibility for their overall homeschool education. It is a Christian, co-op-style program, not enrollment in KAI’s private Hybrid School.

Why families choose it

A thoughtful rhythm for the whole child

Each Tuesday is designed to reinforce what matters—faith, skill, confidence, creativity, and connection.

01

Faith at the center

Students begin together in all-school prayer. At 11:30, they gather for all-school Bible at the heart of the day. Prayer and Christian truth are woven into the culture, not added as an afterthought.

02

Learning made lively

Writing, art, critical thinking, entrepreneurship, physical education, and age-appropriate early learning give students fresh ways to grow.

03

Real community

Shared classes, Bible, lunch, and movement create the consistent peer relationships many homeschool families want without surrendering flexibility.

The Tuesday experience

Rotations vary by age group, but the rhythm stays intentional: active mornings, a shared spiritual center, community at lunch, and focused afternoon learning.

Helpful details

Before you inquire

Is Community Academy Christian?

Yes. Prayer and Bible instruction are part of the program. Families are expected to respect KAI’s Christian mission, environment, and standards.

Do students wear a uniform?

No. Students follow a general modest dress standard: neat, appropriately covering, safe for activities, and suitable for a Christian educational environment.

What about lunch?

Students bring lunch from home unless KAI announces another arrangement. All-School Bible begins at 11:30 AM and Community Lunch begins at noon.

Does an inquiry guarantee acceptance?

No. KAI reviews each family inquiry first. If the program appears to be a good mutual fit and space is available, KAI will provide the next steps for approved registration.

Can we choose only certain classes?

Yes. Families may inquire about full Tuesday or available individual classes for their child’s age group.
