Portrait Of A
DCA Graduate

At Dayspring Christian Academy, we begin with the end in mind. Our focus is not only on what our students are learning, but just as importantly, on who they are becoming.

DCA’s Portrait of a Graduate is woven throughout our curriculum, with daily opportunities for Biblical Worldview and character development in the classroom, athletics, performing arts, and extra-curricular activities. As our students grow in knowledge and wisdom, we desire for their hearts to become more like Christ, demonstrated in how they Learn, Love, and Lead.

LEARN

We strive to provide our students with rigorous academia that not only promotes learning within our walls but a hunger for learning that stays with our graduates for a lifetime.

“Let a wise person listen and increase learning, and let a discerning person obtain guidance—The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge; fools despise wisdom and discipline.”  (Proverbs 1:5,7)

  • Develop and utilize higher-level thinking skills such as critical thinking skills, problem-solving skills, and independent thinking skills, that will transfer to all life experiences

Individual Purpose

  • Appreciate their God-given design and utilize all that God has given them for His kingdom with courage and confidence
  • Steadfastly persevere through difficult challenges by learning and growing through them
  • Pursue godly decision-making

LOVE

First and foremost, we want our graduates to be immersed in the love of God being taught through His example of how to love others.

“He answered, “Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength and with all your mind’; and, ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.” (Luke 10:27)
