Who We Are

At Ankeny Christian Academy we believe in the importance of developing the whole person by shepherding our students through academic excellence, Christ-centered discipleship, and authentic relationships. Our faculty will challenge them to achieve their fullest potential spiritually, academically, socially, physically, and relationally. We value the partnership between a student’s school, home, and church as we collectively work to prepare them with the foundation of God’s unchanging truth so that they are equipped to serve and engage with the world.
