Urban Christian Academy is a private, Christian school in Kansas City. Their goal is to see students on a different trajectory than the one their zip code dictates. They believe that while Jesus is the linchpin to transformation, an excellent education is a vehicle to a myriad of life options that they believe their students deserve and are capable of. They believe that lack of financial resources should not inhibit students from the opportunity to receive a high-quality, Christian education.

THEIR MISSION

We believe God’s heart is about transforming and restoring what is broken, that he has deep love and compassion for all of His children, no matter their zip code.

THE GOAL

They are currently serving over 100 students in grades K-5. Their plan is to be able to add a new grade each year. They started in 2014 with one kindergarten class and have been adding a class each year since. They hope to be able to serve students and their families from pre-K through 12th grade.
