Godly Education ~ Academic Excellence ~ Since 1968 Nurturing the next generation to live out the Gospel of Christ in our time. Thank you for visiting our website today and for your interest in our school. Christian Liberty Academy is a private, independent, Christian school serving over 875 students, located in Wheeling Township, Cook County, Illinois. The Academy serves families who live in 69 surrounding cities. The Church of Christian Liberty provides oversight for the Academy as one of its ministries, though students and parents are not required to be members or attend the church. The mission of CLA is to provide Christian parents with a quality and affordable education that will enable them to train up their children in the nurture and admonition of the Lord (Ephesians 6:4), so that they glorify Christ in every sphere of life. Since 1968, CLA has maintained a high standard of academic excellence in seeking to prepare students to serve Christ and work for the building of His kingdom in all areas of life. The Academy has graduated nearly 750 seniors since 1972. The academic school year consists of 35 weeks divided into two semesters. CLA uses a traditional scheduling approach, with the school day beginning at 8:30 a.m. and ending at 3:35 p.m. Nine 40-minute classes and a 20-minute chapel period structure the day. This year we have added 2 early classes at 7:45AM in AP Literature and Spanish 3 to accommodate our expanding High School curriculum. Last year we accomplished a beautiful renovation to the Paul D. Lindstrom Library, added preschool and kindergarten classrooms due to increasing enrollments, moved and expanded the art room, and purchased two new buses. This year has been a good one for our school. It has now been twenty-two years since we entered our facilities here in Arlington Heights, and during these years we have been blessed with a greatly improved and enlarged program. This year we have upgraded our science lab equipment as well as our library books and resources, added AP Literature to our expanding High School AP program, added an Electronics class to the High School curriculum, added another preschool classroom, installed AED equipment with trained staff members, and renovated the Faith Gym to expand the basketball court to regulation size and refinish the gym floor. We will also be enhancing the kindergarten and pre-school playground area. Several new teachers have been added to our staff as we have grown. We are thankful for these many blessings as well as the many new families at CLA. Please browse the website. It is constantly being improved and updated so come back and visit us often to find out what is happening at CLA. If you are a prospective family, please call us for a visit to the campus after you navigate around the website. We would be honored to give you a tour. Thank you again for your interest in CLA. |
