United Christian Academy Mission Statement

The mission of United Christian Academy is to provide a Christ centered education to students K-12 from the Northeast Kingdom as well as internationally. We are a unique multi-denominational school with Catholic and Protestant students, faculty and staff. Our unity lies in requiring all families to be open to the Christian faith and desiring all students to come to a personal faith in Jesus Christ. UCA is seeking students who want to be challenged by high academic and moral standards, which include a commitment to community service. We strive to partner with families and to have them be active participants in all aspects of our school in order to bring about a sense of belonging in the educational process.Building students with godly
