Walnut Creek Christian Academy

We love this school. Ever since we arrived, the staff has been incredibly warm and welcoming. They provide a loving and nurturing environment for children and my son is so happy here. Academically, it’s accredited and offers so much. In kindergarten, my son had a full array of subjects: reading, social studies, science, mathematics, music, Spanish, library, and computers. There are 2 kindergarten classrooms and each has its own potty, which is really nice. We LOVED Mrs. Fustukjian! She was the biggest blessing of a kindergarten teacher we could have ever hoped for. She’s super organized, firm, but ultra loving to each child. My son thrives in a structured environment and she really helped him to grow. The thing I liked the most was that whenever there was conflict between students, she always took the time to collect the facts and then addressed the issues accordingly. She made my son feel significant and important because he always felt heard and understood. She made our first year at WCCA great and put all our concerns at ease.
The PTF (parent/​teacher fellowship… their version of PTA) is very involved and supportive. There are a ton of events they put on throughout the year that gives parents an opportunity to volunteer to support the school. They’re amazing and as my kids get older, I can’t wait to get more involved.
Needless to say, all my babies will attend. We’ve checked out Christian schools between Dublin/​Pleasanton all the way up through to Walnut Creek, and we weren’t able to find a comparable school that’s both Christ centered and academically excellent. It’s an awesome reflection of the church (First Baptist of Walnut Creek) and together, it’s a great family oriented community to be a part of. I totally recommend checking them out for your littles if this is what you’re looking for.

If you are looking for a Christian School that exudes christian character this is not the place for you. Can’t speak to the academics, but to me christian character should shine first and foremost at the very least from the faculty.

All of my children have had an amazing experience at WCCA. The staff on campus is dedicated to knowing and loving the children. This is not just education people, this is a loving environment. The teachers will actually get to know your child! Since they (both teachers and staff), take that time to get to know your child, not only will your child feel loved, but they will also learn and flourish. I honestly couldn’t be happier (said the mom of FOUR VERY HAPPY CHILDREN).

I can only speak for their gym because I came to watch a junior high girls volleyball game, but the gym has recently been redone and it was very nice! However, the scoreboard is perfectly hidden from the spectators view when sitting on the bleachers, and the other scoreboard that was in perfect view wasn’t in use???

Son really liked it here
