Faith-Filled Education in a Close-Knit Community
WELCOME!
At Winterset Christian Academy, every student is known, every family is valued, and Christ is at the center of all we do.
We’re a small, accredited Christian school with a big mission — to teach, guide, and grow children in both wisdom and godly character. In our modern-day one-room classroom, students of all ages learn side by side under the care of one devoted teacher. Every lesson, every project, every conversation points back to truth and the loving guidance of God’s Word.
Here, education goes beyond books. We step into our community as the hands and feet of Jesus — serving others, discovering gifts, and learning real-life skills that prepare our students for the purpose God has planned for them.
At WCA, we don’t just teach students what to know — we help them become who they’re called to be.
You May Be a WCA Family If….
You love the idea of a one-room schoolhouse — where every student is known, seen, and taught by the same caring teacher…..a tight-knit community where everyone knows your child’s name.
You want your child to learn in real relationship- not separated by grade, but surrounded by people who cheer them on. Older students help younger ones and everyone grows together. A 1st grader’s “why” can inspire a 5th grader’s “how?”
You want your child to grow in character, confidence, and calling- not just academics.
You see faith as the foundation of everything we do-from morning prayer to math lessons and most of all in friendships.
You love that one teacher truly knows each student deeply-their strengths, struggles, and stories- and can teach with both strategy and heart.
You believe a small school doesn’t mean limited-it means intentional, personal, and full of heart.
You cheer for your classmates as loudly as you cheer for your own- because community means we rise together.
You like that it’s not a traditional school or a homeschool- we’re the best of both worlds: a faith-based, accredited one-room school where children are known, loved, and equipped for life.
You believe learning should connect to real life, whether through local business partnerships, service projects, or simply showing up for the community that supports us.
WCA is more than a school- we’re a faith-filled classroom learning side by side, growing together every day.
PARENTS ARE GRATEFUL.

Students enjoyed a tour at AgriVision, where they learned about the history of John Deere and discovered how AgriVision supports local farmers and serves our community.
Wednesday Chapel is always a favorite! Students sing along as their teacher plays the guitar, and volunteers share a Bible lesson that encourages and inspires everyone.
We couldn’t do this without our amazing volunteers and generous donors — thank you for all you do for WCA!
