Open Door Christian School, 3033 N. 103rd Terrace, closed its doors after 47 years, but that’s not the story. The story is that the principal, teachers and some of the parents didn’t want to end the school.
So they started their own, Community Christian Academy, and worked out a tuition plan based on family income.
Community Christian Academy is at the same address as the Muncie Christian School at 3650 N. 67th St., Kansas City, Kansas. It will be for kindergarten through sixth grade students.
According to principal Teresa Christopher, “This school is born out of the heart’s desire of a handful of local parents and educators with a passion for Christian education and a love for our community. We want to make Christian education accessible and affordable for families in Wyandotte County.”
According to the school’s handbook, Community Christian Academy seeks to “support Christian families in providing a purposeful education in which minds are shaped by the transforming power of God, hearts are cultivated by the Word of God and the love of Jesus is embodied in serving others.”
The school is open to families of all ethnicities who desire a Christian education for their children, according to school officials.
They are currently getting the building ready for school later this month. They are seeking donors who support an excellent educational program from a biblical perspective.
The first day of school will be Aug. 23. Students will bring their own lunches. For more information about the school, visit communitychristianacademykck.org.

I hope this works. What an excellent alternative to public school education. Does this school promote CRT?
