2024-2025 ANNUAL REPORT
DEAR LCA COMMUNITY,
As we reflect with gratitude on another year of Godâs faithfulness, I am honored to present the Annual Report for the 2024â25 fiscal year, covering August 1, 2024, through July 31, 2025.
Last year, 44% of our Legacy Christian Academy families participated in the Annual Fund, investing more than $2.1 million in support of our mission. Your generosity allows Legacy to go beyond tuition and provide a safe, innovative, and Christ-centered educational experience for every student.
Transparency remains a cornerstone of our partnership, and this Annual Report reflects our commitment to stewarding your gifts with wisdom and care. Legacy continues to be healthy and thriving thanks to the faithful leadership of our Board of Trustees and Finance Committee, who work alongside school leadership to ensure long-term financial sustainability.
Your Annual Fund investments made a meaningful impact across our campus strengthening campus security, enhancing academic and learning environments, supporting athletics and fine arts, and expanding access to Christian education through financial assistance for families. From facility upgrades and technology enhancements to program improvements and student support, each investment was made with the goal of advancing excellence while prioritizing safety, stewardship, and student growth. Within these pages, you will find detailed information outlining how Annual Fund resources were allocated throughout the year.
Most importantly, your generosity helped provide financial aid to 164 families, ensuring that more students and families could experience the life-shaping impact of a Legacy education.
As we look ahead with confidence and hope, we are reminded of Godâs promise in 2 Corinthians 9:8, that He supplies every need and equips us for the good work He has set before us. Thank you for your continued prayers, generosity, and partnership. Together, we are shaping lives, strengthening families, and advancing Christ-centered education at Legacy Christian Academy.
With gratitude,
Kevin Mosley Head of School

ANNUAL FUND IMPACT
A NOTE FROM THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES
The story of Legacy Christian Academy is one of faith, commitment, and shared purpose.
During the 2024â25 fiscal year, we have seen God at work through the people who make up this community and through the mission that unites us. As the Board of Trustees, we are grateful for the opportunity to serve and to reflect with you on the progress and provision of the past year.
Legacyâs mission to educate and develop students through a biblical worldview continues to guide every decision entrusted to the Board. We are encouraged by the growth we see in our students as they pursue academic excellence, deepen their faith, and learn to lead with integrity and conviction. This formation of both mind and character is the foundation upon which Legacy stands.
The past year demonstrated the strength of partnership within the Legacy community. Support through the Annual Fund enabled the school to make strategic investments across campus, including improvements to learning spaces, campus security, facilities, technology, athletics, and the arts. These resources also played a critical role in extending the opportunity for a Christ centered education to families through financial assistance.
Stewardship and accountability remain central to the Boardâs work. In collaboration with school leadership and the Finance Committee, we continually evaluate the schoolâs financial health and long range sustainability. We are grateful for the careful management of resources that allows Legacy Christian Academy to move forward with stability and confidence.
One of the most meaningful outcomes of this yearâs generosity was the ability to support 164 families with financial assistance. Each of these families represents a story of access, opportunity, and trust in the mission of Legacy. Their presence within our community strengthens the school and reflects our shared commitment to serving others.
As we look to the future, we do so with optimism and trust in Godâs continued provision. The work taking place at Legacy Christian Academy is shaping students who are prepared to engage the world with faith, wisdom, and purpose. We are thankful for your role in this mission and for the ways you support the school through prayer, service, and generosity.
Together, we remain committed to the calling God has placed before us and to the enduring impact of Christ centered education at Legacy Christian Academy.

MESSAGE FROM THE CHAIRMAN, BOARD OF TRUSTEES
DEAR LEGACY CHRISTIAN ACADEMY COMMUNITY,
Almost nine years have passed since my wife, Irina, and I first stepped onto the LCA campus. Even now, we vividly remember the warmth, hospitality, and Christ-centered spirit that greeted our family. That feeling has never faded. Instead, it has only deepened as we have watched Olivia (â28) and Adele (â32) grow under the care, guidance, and biblical teaching of our extraordinary faculty and leadership. God has been faithful to our family and yours, just as He continues to be faithful to this school.
At LCA, our commitment remains steadfast: to develop strong leaders with biblical convictions. We believe that a Christ-centered education, one that nurtures both mind and spirit, equips our students not only for academic success, but for a purposeful life of influence and impact. As parents, we see this shaping our own children. As members of this community, we witness it transforming countless others.
This Annual Report on Philanthropy reflects you, our faithful partners who give generously of your time, talent, and treasure. Your support plays a vital role in empowering LCA to carry out its mission. Because of your investment, students experience academic excellence, spiritual growth rooted in an unshakable biblical worldview, leadership opportunities, expanded college readiness programs, and access to financial assistance for families in need.
Your contributions beyond tuition continue to make a profound difference. They strengthen and advance our faculty and curriculum, enhance campus safety and technology, enrich our athletic and fine arts programs, and support numerous facility improvements that benefit every student.
Looking ahead to the coming year, we do so with great hope and anticipation. The future of LCA shines brightly because of your faithfulness and shared belief in our mission. We trust that God will continue to work through this community in powerful ways as we prepare the next generation of leaders to impact the world for Christ.
Your support is quite literally changing lives. Thank you for your partnership, your prayers, and your commitment to leaving a lasting legacy for the families of today and tomorrow. Together, we will continue to build a thriving, Christ-centered community, one where students are equipped to grow, lead, and boldly live out their faith.
With deep gratitude,
Jeff Owens Chairman, Board of Trustees
