Airdrie Christian Academy (formerly Airdrie Koinonia Christian School) was founded in September of 1987 with three full-time teachers, one part-time teacher and approximately fifty students from kindergarten through grade seven. It was one of the largest school starts in the Calgary area.
ACA is accredited by the Alberta Department of Education and maintains official memberships with the Association of Christian Schools International and the Association of Independent Schools and Colleges of Alberta.
By integrating a Christian worldview into the curriculum provided by Alberta Education, we have been impacting the lives of children in Airdrie and surrounding area for over 30 years. We offer a rigorous, yet safe and friendly, environment for children from Preschool to Grade 12 and provide them with a solid foundation for their futures, both academically and spiritually.
This school was started for His glory, and will continue on only for His glory! Only Christ and His truth are our foundation, and on Him alone will we stand.
