The purpose Latham Christian Academy is to present all truths from a God-centered worldview based on the viewpoint of faith in Jesus Christ.  Keeping in mind that all knowledge, understanding, and wisdom come from God, we see that all education becomes a revelation of God, and that no academic subject can be properly understood apart from that revelation  Therefore, in addition to the regular textbook, the Bible is also a textbook for each subject.

Parents are the key to education!  Our teachers strive to assist the parents in the task of educating their children.  Parents receive progress reports on a regular basis and are included in all major decisions related to the education of their children.
