Westside Christian Academy is a K-12 Classical Christian school in the greater Cleveland, OH suburbs. The means of our education is about formation. We are training students to become disciples of God who are awakened and attuned to His beauty, goodness, and truth. It means that students are taught according to the Trivium (grammar, logic, rhetoric), which emphasizes that as children develop cognitively, they learn differently. It means our students are developing skills that are essential in higher education and throughout life – independent scholarship, critical thinking, logical analysis, and a love for learning. Our mission is to partner with Christian parents to help equip students with a Biblically integrated, academically excellent, classical education so that they engage the world with the truth of the gospel and the love of Christ, near and far, across generations.
