Living Word Academy
The purpose of Living Word Academy is to teach a strong foundation in reading, writing, and arithmetic while allowing children to pursue their individual interests and talents. Our goal is to teach a strong work ethic and essential life skills through a variety of methods that encourage a lifetime of learning. In all things, we want to glorify God by teaching Biblical truths at every stage of educational development, allowing children to become spiritually equipped for this life, and ultimately, for eternal life.

There may be additional books/items that need to be purchased on top of the tuition cost for high schoolers, depending upon the class.

"Do you not know? Have you not heard? The Lord is the everlasting God, the Creator of the ends of the earth. He will not grow tired or weary, and his understanding no one can fathom. He gives strength to the weary and increases the power of the weak. Even youths grow tired and weary, and young men stumble and fall; but those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength. They will soar on wings of eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint." Isaiah 40:28-31
