Saint Andrew Academy launched in 2021 to serve Christian families in our area.
​Our unique model combines the best of home schooling with full-service parochial schooling.
Today, we partner with over 50 Christian families in our area to raise children in the fear of the Lord.​
​​
Each family files their own PSA and uses the Academy as a service provider.
​​​
Parents of students (5-18 years old) can opt in for 5 days (all instruction), 3-day (core classes on MWF with "home days" on Tues/Thurs), or even more customized solutions.
​
Our loving teachers are helping our students to thrive, and our team is here to serve God with zeal, love, and dedication.
