Wilson Christian Academy is a private Christian school providing a college prep education for grades Pre-Kindergarten through 12th grade. Wilson was built on a foundation of excellence and based on the Word of God. Established in 1977 by the Thomas Wilson Foundation the Academy has grown academically, spiritually and physically to reach its current enrollment of just under 10 students. Accredited by Middle States Association of Colleges and Schools (MSACS) WCA is held to a level of academic excellence.

With our spacious facility and the recent addition of the A.M. Delo Sportatorium, WCA students enjoy the benefit of a comfortable and safe learning environment with smaller student-to-teacher ratios.

Located in West Mifflin, Pennsylvania, near Century III Mall and CCAC, WCA offers a well-rounded academic preschool for four and five year-olds, both full and half-day kindergarten programs as well as strong college preparatory classes for grades k through 1.

Wilson Christian Academy exists to provide a quality, Christ-centered education that will lead students to a saving knowledge of the Lord Jesus Christ and challenge saved students to strive for spiritual maturity. We will assist parents/guardians in their God-given responsibility of educating their children. Born-again and qualified faculty members who will serve as Christian role models for the students will teach a challenging curriculum. Our goal is for students to achieve excellence academically, spiritually, physically and emotionally. Our students will gain an understanding of God’s Word in order to develop a Christian worldview and to become servant-leaders impacting the world around them.

“Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it.” Proverbs 22:6
