High School
Overview
Because each student is a different, special, and extraordinary work of God, the goal of the High School curriculum is to prepare students for the future as well as minister to the whole student. This goal is pursued through a diverse and rigorous academic program bolstered by a strong foundation in Biblical Worldview.
During their time in high school, students have the opportunity to challenge themselves with 13 Advanced Placement (AP) classes and a number of advanced courses like engineering and honors foreign language.
The curriculum recognizes that the student is more than just an academic and boasts a wide range of artistic and athletic offerings. The high school curriculum encourages students to embrace their interests and pursue a total education through programs like January Term and a wide array of extracurricular groups and activities.

ACSI's Response to Capitol Violence
I've been spending a lot of time in the Book of Proverbs. "Get wisdom!" the Proverbs cry. I, for one, need wisdom in these volatile, uncertain, complex, and ambiguous days.
One of the reasons I like Dr. Taylor's response to the ignominy of January 6, 2021 is his unexpected turn into the virtue of prudence. Personally, I think wisdom is the better word. Wisdom to know the difference between right and wrong.

Blended Learning
Every 7th-12th grade student receives a Chromebook as part of their learning curriculum. The Chromebooks are utilized every day throughout the school year.
Little Rock Christian has strategically chosen Chromebooks due to the enhancement they provide in the learning environment, the increased communication and correspondence students have with their teachers, and the proven security only a school issued Chromebook can provide.
Chromebook Insurance
Chromebook Insurance is included in the cost of tuition. This insurance provides an accident/damage policy for each Chromebook issued. Replacement chargers are not covered by insurance. Replacement chargers can be purchased for $25.
For questions, please contact Karen Stotts

5 Golden Expectations as Partners of The Golden Triangle
Dr. Gary Arnold, EdD - LRCA President and Head of School
We often speak of the Golden Triangle: the Christian home, the Christian church, and the Christian school working together on the same page and walking together in the same direction. Five fundamental expectations of our mutual relationship have passed the test of time and experience. Unity on these fundamentals is a very important indicator of our mission-effectiveness.
“… Eager to Maintain the Unity of the Spirit in the Bond of Peace.” (Ephesians 4:3)
Dr. Gary Arnold, EdD - LRCA President and Head of School
I read a copy of an “Open Letter to Little Rock Christian Academy” on Facebook. Even though the letter is anonymous, I want to respond since it represents an issue that concerns so many of us. Not only that, authentic desire for dialogue and growth motivates me.
We grieve.
