This list is not exhaustive. Students can go to any person within the school to discuss psychological/emotional/spiritual issues. Notwithstanding, this network provides adults on campus who are available to assist as needed. Predominantly, these individuals will connect the student with resources in which the focus is prevention, intervention, positive development, and regular communication between school and families. Most importantly, though, the goal of this network is to glorify God. He is the Wonderful Counselor (Isaiah 9:6), Great Healer (Psalm 103:3), Eternal Helper (John 14:16) Restorer of the Broken-hearted (Psalm 147:3) and Keeper of Perfect Peace (Isaiah 26:3). Our staff is committed to assisting our students and their families by pointing them to the only ONE who can truly meet their needs. Through these resources, the focus is prevention, intervention, positive development, and regular communication between school and families. Members of the Support Network represent a school-wide commitment to improve mental health recognition and to provide beneficial resources in supporting students who are experiencing stress, anxiety, depression, or eating disorders. We are excited to discover more ways to impact our students to ensure their positive well-being. ELCA does not tolerate bullying, harassment, or intimidation of any sort. Principals and the school counselor will thoroughly assess and intervene any such suspicions. Many preventative efforts are made through our Kingdom Educational foundation and Biblical Worldview approach to behavioral expectations. Our chapel services, Unity Counsel, Student government accountability groups, and more each promote proper treatment of others. Any deviation is quickly identified and addressed. In any instance whereby child abuse or neglect is suspected, the staff member will immediately notify a principal and/or the School Counselor. The student will be evaluated and referred to the governmental authorities as determined appropriate by these individuals and as consistent with Mandatory Reporting laws. Mandated Reporters are not required to notify guardians of an official report of child abuse or neglect. ELCA will disclose this information as deemed safe and appropriate.

A foundational principle of Christian education is that all people are created in the image of God and there is a focused effort to strengthen our diverse culture by addressing criticial issues.

We embrace the philosophy that a team approach is essential to reach a successful end. Here you will find resources for testing, college planning and admissions, and financial aid. Parents can be active participants in the college exploration and application process. You should visit campuses with your child and participate in programs offered by admission offices. Other ways to be involved are: making certain your child has been thorough in his/her search; reviewing the admission and financial aid applications and offering guidance in their completion; making certain that tasks get completed and forms are submitted on time; being the support and counselor when decisions are made.

Inform students about upcoming college representative visits and college fairs. Guide students on the process of registering for college entrance exams and sending test scores to colleges.

Take charge of his/her own application process by knowing application and scholarship requirements and deadlines and independently completing each part of the application.

Going over the test – question by question – is a valuable way to improve SAT scores. Students who have questions about their score report should talk with the Academic Dean or Director of College Placement and Guidance. SAT (Scholastic Assessment Test) and ACT (American College Test) Eagle's Landing Christian Academy school code for both the SAT and the ACT is 112046.

Dr. J. Keith Curlee, Head of School at Eagle's Landing Christian Academy, shares his excitement for the 2024-25 school year. ELCA is a gospel-centered, Kingdom-focused, college preparatory school committed to academic excellence and spiritual growth. With AP and dual-enrollment classes, the school nurtures students through a biblical lens. Partnered with Eagle's Landing First Baptist Church, ELCA aims to make disciples of Jesus Christ. MESSAGE FROM THE HEAD OF SCHOOL DR. KEITH CURLEE I am thrilled to be the head of school at Eagle's Landing Christian Academy. I am excited to see how God will continue to work among our students, parents, faculty, and staff during the 2025-26 school year. God has truly blessed our church and school community! Here at ELCA we desire to follow our mission statement which reads: Eagle’s Landing Christian Academy is a gospel-centered, Kingdom focused, college preparatory school that exists to make disciples of Jesus Christ for the glory of God. We live out this mission by making several commitments to our families and students: We are committed to a gospel-centered school. The word gospel means “good news”. Our students at ELCA will come to realize that God, the Father, sent his only Son, Jesus, to live a perfect life, and to die for all of mankind’s sins. But Jesus did not remain dead; He resurrected from the dead and desires for everyone, everywhere to come to know this truth and to put their faith and trust in Jesus as Lord and Savior. The hope we have in Jesus’ resurrection is truly good news. We are committed to being Kingdom focused. Scripture teaches us that this world we live in is not our home yet. God has placed us here to live in this world, but to not be of this world. We view the Bible as God’s Holy Word. In every aspect of school life, it is our sincere desire to point students to Christ. We offer Bible classes, worship opportunities in age-appropriate chapel services, but also teach each subject through the lens of Scripture. It is our aim to lead students to Christ, build them up in Christ, and equip them to serve Christ, which we call Kingdom Education. We are committed to being a college preparatory school. By offering multiple AP and dual-enrollment classes, we provide our students with academic excellence and a quality education. The majority of our graduates will be attending 4-year colleges and universities. We have excellent, certified, Christian teachers that lead our students each and every day. Our 87 graduates in the Class of 2025 were awarded close to $15 million in college scholarships. Recent graduates attend colleges and universities in various places including MIT, Georgia Tech, UGA, West Point, Duke, Truett-McConnell, Shorter University, and Kennesaw State to name a few. Lastly, we are a ministry of Eagle's Landing First Baptist Church, and both our church and school work hand-in-hand to make disciples for Jesus. Our goal is to use education so that our students become life-long followers of Christ!! Thank you for visiting our website. We hope that it is helpful in showing you who we are and what we are all about here at ELCA. Blessings! Dr. J. Keith Curlee Head of School GET TO KNOW DR. CURLEE

We are so excited to welcome the Class of 2025! We know God has great things in store for them! This page will be updated with events and dates for ALL things related to our Senior class. Get ready for a wonderful year and an exciting time!

Joining the Booster Club is a great way to support the student-athletes and the teams that represent ELCA Athletics. ELCA has a rich and proud tradition of excellence on and off the playing fields. The ELCA Booster Club’s financial contributions have made great impacts on all the ELCA sports teams and the many athletes that have participated in our programs throughout the years. By joining the ELCA Athletic Boosters you will be helping fund opportunities for our ever-developing sports programs. Our recent projects include the resurface of the track and the funding for the new hitting facility! There are many different levels of sponsorship available so that you can help support ELCA Athletics. Each one is designed to meet the needs you may have as either a Corporate Sponsorship or an Individual/Family Sponsorship. All membership levels include two (2) free entries into all the sporting events held on the campus here at ELCA. Joining the ELCA Booster Club is the only way that you can get in free to all the athletic events on campus. The only exclusion would be all GHSA playoff games in the respective sports. You will also get a minimum of two Homecoming Dinner tickets. Maybe you would want to know where you will sit at the football games, we have a level for that starting with our Bronze level. Maybe you would like to advertise your business; we have a few levels (Silver, Gold, and Platinum) which can help you with that. Seating in the Blue Booster section at the stadium is premium seating. We need to show our support for ELCA Football by filling it up each game. We will offer with the bronze level and above the ability to purchase extra seats for $75.00 a seat for the whole season. So, if you need more than the two seats that come with the membership you can now purchase more with this option. This is reduced from past years. Priority will be given first to renewals from last year and then new requests based on the date we receive the form. We would appreciate your support and you can see the attached form to join. Just send it in with your child and we can bill your account for your membership. This year we have added to the bottom of our membership form a pay in three payments line.
