Southland Christian Preschool and Southland Christian Academy seek to provide a ten year opportunity for spiritual growth, from 2 years old through 6th grade.
It is our goal that all students completing their education at SCA would: be committed to follow Christ, understand the importance of spiritual growth, see the world from a Christian worldview, be active in church life, find an area of ministry and get involved, and show care and respect for others.
Our purpose is to provide instruction that is in conformity with our Statement of Faith.
We endeavor to prepare each student to take his/her place of leadership in the home, the church, the community, and eventually a profession - all in a manner that glorifies God.
As a ministry of Desert Reign Assembly of God Church, our mission is to provide an academic education within a Christian environment, teaching from a Biblical perspective based on the absolute truth of the Bible, and to introduce unchurched families to the various ministries of Desert Reign Assembly of God Church.
