Middle School Identity meets intention. Students grow in wisdom, grace, and grit through Christ-centered connection. Schedule a Tour Contact WHY CHOOSE ELCA OUR FOUNDATION ADMINISTRATORS HOUSES NEWS Menu Close Why do parents choose ELCA? Academic Rigor Our middle schoolers are challenged with a strong academic program designed to prepare them for high school, college, and beyond. They are continuously engaged in subjects taught from a biblical perspective, helping them gain knowledge in light of God's Word. Leadership Opportunities ELCA middle school students have several opportunities to sharpen their leadership skills. They can join the Student Government Association, and organizations such as the National Junior Beta Club. We also encourage them to take roles in weekly chapel services and daily prayer time. Enriched Learning Learning doesn't stop at the four walls of the classroom. Our middle schoolers enjoy a variety of enriching electives such as Life Skills using the Habitudes Program, Computer Skills, art , band, theatre, and more. Clubs including chess, aviation, World Impact trips, and marching band will cultivate your child's inner passions. Competitive Athletics Our students develop strength, discipline, character, and teamwork through many opportunities for competitive athletics . Your child can participate in team sports such as baseball, basketball, cheer cross country, lacrosse, football, volleyball, wrestling, and more. Want to reinforce the values you teach at home? We do too. See how for yourself. Schedule a Tour Where identity meets intention. There's no greater feeling than knowing that your child is confident and ready to step into their future plans. At ELCA, we place a strong emphasis on preparing our middle schoolers for the opportunities that await them in high school, college, and life. Stimulating Subjects and Specials Middle school students also have the opportunity to take honors classes in math, English, reading, and science, depending on their grade level. In addition, all students participate in a fine arts elective of their choice, giving them the opportunity to explore their interests, express their creativity, and develop their talents and skills in the arts. Students also take 2 quarters of PE, and a quarter each of Life Skills and Computer Skills. Maximizing Potential Our committed teachers set high, yet realistic, expectations for students while recognizing and nurturing each child’s unique strengths and abilities. We strive to help students discover who God is creating them to be and encourage them to grow academically, spiritually, and emotionally. Students in grades 6–8 have the opportunity to participate in World Impact experience trips, and our 7th and 8th grade students attend a Spiritual Emphasis Retreat each fall to deepen their faith, strengthen relationships, and grow in their walk with Christ. Class Schedules Our students follow a balanced but structured schedule with breaks built into the day. The 7:55 a.m. to 3:15 p.m. school day is designed to give adequate instructional time for every subject, making sure that all topics are covered for the day. A Thriving Community that Puts Christ at the Center. In middle school, your child is building their identity. Their experiences start to shape how they see the world and how they navigate challenges, relationships, and interactions with peers and mentors. As a parent, you know that influences play a key part in these short and precious years. The love and knowledge of God is at the heart of ELCA's school culture. Our biblical worldview nurtures middle schoolers, so that they can grow in Christ-likeness. We promote an environment that encourages integrity,respect, service, and hard work among our students, through: Differentiated Learning Each child has their unique learning style and strengths. We value such differences by having small class sizes and teachers who are intentional about discovering our students' learning styles and areas of interest. Our MERIT Program supports students with diagnosed learning differences with resources that build success in the classroom. Character Development Our curriculum is deeply rooted in God-centered principles, helping middle school students develop the heart and mind of Christ. Through both classroom instruction and the activities within our House System, we seek to inspire students to grow in character as well as academics. Students are encouraged to live out the values of integrity, respect, service, and hard work in their daily lives. The House System also fosters meaningful connections and provides opportunities for students to build intentional, long-lasting relationships with both peers and teachers. Open Communication We honor our students' thoughts and concerns. Should your child need one-on-one time to talk, we have a dedicated counselor and administrators who are available to listen. As a learning community, we also discuss topics about showing respect and compassion to others. Partnering with Parents. We encourage parents to volunteer with PTF, share their thoughts, and be involved in their child's development. We believe that middle schoolers can make strides in their progress when we collaborate with parents like you. “Middle school years are hard years - years full of mistakes, learning, and growth. ELCA has given us an environment that offers a tremendous balance of accountability and grace; one that walks alongside my girls, reinforcing what we value as a family — a gospel-centered worldview. I have never questioned their physical or emotional safety with teachers and administration. Everyone has given them the space to grow as a person, become independent and figure out what God has uniquely created them to do.” Heather (ELCA Mom) My son absolutely LOVES this school!! He actually wakes up excited to learn and attend school. The school seems to foster a love of learning among students (which is a parent's dream).

Unity Living as image bearers in the light of His grace. Schedule a Tour Contact Diversity within our school ELCA strives to nurture a unified community of God-centered individuals who are known and valued for whom God distinctly created them to be. We recognize and respect our cultural differences and unique abilities, rejoice in our similarities, and love ALL individuals as image-bearers of God. Students at ELCA have the privilege of growing up in a richly diverse student population. As you walk our halls, you get a sense of what Heaven will be like as you see students who come from many different ethnic and cultural backgrounds. In a focused effort to strengthen our diverse culture, we have established a Unity Council to discuss critical issues within our school. The council consists of parents, staff members, and students who meet on a regular basis to discuss ongoing issues and create strategies for future improvement. Our foundational principle is that all people are created in the image of God. As image-bearers, we all have great value in the eyes of the Creator and thus we should treat those who are different than us with that mindset. GRACE The word GRACE describes our focus on diversity within the school... G - gender R - race A - age and ability C - culture E - education All of these groups are represented within our school and are recognized within God's word. Our goal is to teach our students that God has created us in His image and for His glory. As students begin to grasp that concept, they are able to respond to one another in a truly Biblical way. Achieving Growth Kingdom Education We prepare students to lead, serve, and live with eternal purpose.

Everyone has given them the space to grow as a person, become independent and figure out what God has uniquely created them to do.” Heather (ELCA Mom) Eagles Landing Christian Academy has been an incredible blessing in my life. Every day I attend I am surrounded by loving teachers and kind classmates within the school. This school has a harder program than other schools due to it being college preparatory, but is backed up by incredible support from their help classes and tutoring. I can definitely recommend this school to family and friends for years to come. I am truly grateful for being able to attend this school and share memorable experiences throughout my high school career.

Item Title Three A Commitment To Our Students’ Well-Being When you enroll your child at ELCA, we recognize there is a transfer of trust that we will care for their well-being and safety. We are committed to our students’ well-being, by putting measures in place such as locked doors, security monitoring systems, and visitor check-ins. Our beautiful, 86-acre campus is located within Eagle’s Landing First Baptist Church. We have a middle school wing that features multiple classrooms, newly added state-of-the-art activity centers, secure outdoor spaces, and a football stadium.

Read More Achieving Growth Kingdom Education We prepare students to lead, serve, and live with eternal purpose. Why do parents choose ELCA? Academic Rigor Our middle schoolers are challenged with a strong academic program designed to prepare them for high school, college, and beyond. They are continuously engaged in subjects taught from a biblical perspective, helping them gain knowledge in light of God's Word. Leadership Opportunities ELCA middle school students have several opportunities to sharpen their leadership skills. They can join the Student Government Association, and organizations such as the National Junior Beta Club. We also encourage them to take roles in weekly chapel services and daily prayer time. Enriched Learning Learning doesn't stop at the four walls of the classroom. Our middle schoolers enjoy a variety of enriching electives such as robotics, art , foreign language, band, drama, and more. Clubs including chess, aviation, World Impact trips, marching band, and chorale will cultivate your child's inner passions. Competitive Athletics Our students develop strength, discipline, character, and teamwork through many opportunities for competitive athletics . Your child can participate in team sports such as baseball, basketball, cheer cross country, lacrosse, football, volleyball, wrestling, and more. OUR HISTORY WHO WE ARE MISSION + VISION OUR VALUES SCHEDULE A TOUR Menu Close

World Impact Missions & Outreach Schedule a Tour Contact Beyond the classroom ELCA World Impact extends curriculum beyond the classroom to provide our ELCA families with cultural, educational, and ministerial experiences both locally and globally. Mission Trips The purposes for World Impact MISSION trips are to build true disciples of Jesus Christ and to foster opportunities for these disciples to impact the world with the Gospel. Students are mobilized to go beyond the classroom and the community of McDonough. The endeavors purposefully partner with ministries established in other regions of the country and world. Non-mission Trips The purpose for World Impact NON-MISSION (academic/adventure) trips is to expose students to educational venues outside of a traditional classroom. Eagle’s Landing Christian Academy is built upon a framework of Kingdom Education and these trips aim to highlight unique parts of the world that God has created for His glory and our enjoyment. Important documents We work diligently to be good stewards of all monies donated for World Impact trips. When there are funds remaining from a particular trip, those funds will be placed into the general budget of World Impact to assist with our overall World Impact program.

Our registration process is tiered to allow older students an opportunity to travel first. However, their advantage is limited to one additional hour on May 1 (see below). For underclassmen, attempting to register before a designated time slot will result in being placed on a waitlist. For all students, a spot is not secured until the deposit is received on May 2. This money will be paid to Mrs. Capp in the High School Commons Area beginning at 7:00AM on May 2. After 3:00PM on May 2, any student who has not paid the deposit will be replaced by a student on the waitlist. Mission trips require a "trip application". These applications are to be submitted to Mrs. Capp by May 15. Registration will open at 5:00 PM for Rising Seniors, 6:00 PM for Rising Juniors, 7:00 PM for Rising Sophomores, and 8:00 PM for Rising Freshmen. Again, please do not register before your designated time. Things to consider when registering: Deposits are non-refundable. The deposit and trip authorization form is required at signup. Deposit should be made in cash/check (made payable to ELCA). Billing is NOT available for paying the deposit. Departure dates are subject to change based on airfare and availability. Separate deposits are required when registering for more than one trip (e.g. two checks are required if registering for two trips). Trips will likely fill up. A waitlist will be used to fill in spots. The registration portal will stay open until May 15 (unless closed already due to reaching max capacity). On May 15, the rosters will be set based on the registrants during this 2 week period. In August, new students will be given a chance to join a team roster if space allows. Students MUST be enrolled at ELCA for the year in which the trip will take place PRIOR to registering for a trip. A student is NOT allowed to be on a list until after they are enrolled or re-enrolled. Un-enrolled students who sign up will be removed from the trip list. No spot will be held while enrollment is being processed. The Senior Trip to Disney does NOT require a deposit. The account will be billed in 6 installments from June to November. Seniors are only allowed a second trip if their first trip is the Disney Senior Trip. Classes are cancelled for Seniors the week of the Disney Trip in the expectation that all Seniors are traveling to Disney. Contact Mrs. Holly Capp directly for questions at holly.capp@eagleslanding.org A background check is required for any adult traveling on an overnight trip. All trips are subject to change. If a minimum number is not met, a trip could be canceled. The deposit would be returned on canceled trips and an attempt will be made to place the student on another trip. Parents of High School students are allowed to travel on the Europe trip but no other trip due to space limitations. The cost for the parent is the same as the cost for a student. Parents of Middle School students are allowed to travel on the Washington, DC and Charleston trips. The cost for the parent is the same as the cost for a student. All pricing of trips is based on quad occupancy. Rooms with fewer numbers will be billed at a higher rate. Scholarships are available through the World Impact Program in May of each year. Students are invited to write an essay about their need and desire to serve on this trip. The essays are due by May 10 each year and recipients will be notified at the final chapel service of the year. Fundraising is limited to assisting with the World Impact Program. Students are encouraged to raise support for their trips through letter-writing campaigns targeting their family and friends. Money that is mailed to ELCA on behalf of a student will be eligible for a charitable donation through the tax code. We encourage individuals making contributions to consult with their tax professional for documentation of donation.
