ACADEMIC EXCELLENCE
GODLINESS
Mesquite Christian Academy (MCA) is the Lord’s school. MCA is a community of people who share a common purpose. It is a welcoming place where the Lord’s presence is felt, where His ways are taught, and where students know they are loved. MCA is helping families raise another Godly generation. It takes seriously its responsibility to transmit to each new generation the “common culture” of Christianity. These are the things that bind Christians together as people. In its highest form, this common culture is the sum of our intellectual inheritance, our legacy from all the ages that have gone before.
OBEDIENCE
MCA is committed to developing Christian character in its students. Our students are treated as moral beings and taught about right and wrong, and to respect authority. Teachers train students in habits that lead to better and more fulfilled lives. MCA strives to maintain a safe and orderly atmosphere. Discipline and academic success go hand in hand. MCA insists that its students demonstrate sound conduct and mutual respect. The rules are clear and enforced.
LEADERSHIP
MCA is committed to providing students and their families with strong Christian leadership. MCA only employs Christian administrators and teachers of sound character; as well as its volunteers. They take their commitment to Classical Christian Education very seriously. We strive to surround ourself with parents who are also committed to Christian education and Christian leadership. Parents are expected to monitor and assist with academics, to stay in touch with teachers, and to raise children who are well behaved and ready to learn. The parent-teacher relationship is viewed as a partnership. MCA is looking to make a positive transformation of the culture by training students in Christian leadership.
