Student Advancement Fund

make an impact in the lives of christ academy students

We believe that high-quality Christian education should be accessible to a wide variety of students and families in the Wichita Falls area, and we desire to partner with our families and local community to offer a robust financial assistance program. In the spring of 2024, we embarked on a new initiative seeking to further benefit our students and foster more growth for our school. Christ Academy has partnered with the Wichita Falls Area Community Foundation (WFACF) to house a designated fund to benefit the students at Christ Academy. 

One of our goals at Christ Academy is to reflect the diversity of the body of Christ. In step with that goal, this designated fund will benefit the current and prospective students at Christ Academy, and our aim is to provide financial aid for up to 30% of our students at Christ Academy. To continue assisting families with financial assistance, we must continue to raise funds through gifts made by our families and the community. This partnership with the WFCAF will allow us to designate the funds we need to accomplish this goal.  

The Christ Academy Student Advancement Fund exists to make Christ-centered education accessible to various support various segments of our community. Below you’ll see a list of the benefits of donating to this fund, as well as a list of the categories we offer for receiving support.
