Although tuition dollars fund Metro Christian Academy, the school knows there are programs, facility needs, and items only sometimes covered by the budget. Each year, the school hosts three major fundraisers, the Annual Golf Classic in the early fall, the Metro Gives Annual Appeal Campaign in the fall, and the Metro Together | Annual Metro Dinner & Auction in the spring. 

Do you remember that feeling? 

The feeling of working hard (at something important), doing well at it, and then being commended for it?!

Nothing quite like that!

Like in a sport whose coach was demanding – expecting great things from you and your team.

Or like a class whose teacher or prof was notoriously challenging, but you nailed it – and earned an “A.”

That’s the feeling that we want for our school during our annual Metro Gives campaign.

Please pray now about how you can give to help Metro get “All A’s…”

ARTS: Help our award-winning Fine and Performing Arts Department reach nearly 1,000 students this year—providing them with displays, a kiln, and a musical booth.

ACTIVITIES: Help with new playground equipment, family-friendly outdoor-seating, and upgraded way-finding signage. 

ACADEMICS: Help our renown Learning Commons with much needed Chromebooks and carts—for enhanced individualized learning.

ATHLETICS: Help our large gym sound system enhancements, girls locker room renovation, and baseball stadium lighting achieve upgrades that have been decades in coming.

I heard someone put it this way recently:

Why G.I.V.E.?

• G  God owns everything, and He gives some to us to give (Psalm 24:1).
• I   Invest in eternity by investing in these kids (Psalm 145:4).
• V  Value what God does when we give (1 Timothy 6:17-19).
• E  Expect God to bless (Proverbs 3:9-10).

So, as Thanksgiving is around the corner and the semester and calendar year will be coming to an end, let’s finish strong.

Let’s work hard. Let’s do well. Let’s help Metro get “All A’s…”

Investing in Metro together,

Keith. A. Currivean, Ph.D., Head of School

Metro Christian Academy’s Patriot Resource Center (PRC) is a unique and historically significant part of our heritage as Christian school community. Begun as a dream of Dr. Wanda Hartman in 1984, for over 30 years, the PRC has provided individual education plans to accommodate the specific learning needs of students in 1st through 12th grades. We are committed to providing individualized interventions and academic plans for students with learning differences as a fulfillment of our mission to serve the entire family. We believe that identified students need instructional strategies, curriculum, and expectations differentiated to meet their unique abilities and potential. To accommodate these student needs, small group class placement and individualized learning goals are offered to extend each child’s individual education plan.

Metro’s Patriot Resource Center provides daily educational, testing, and assessment services to over 120 students and their families while providing on-campus support to over ten faculty members. In honoring a lasting legacy of educational excellence, Metro is committed to coming alongside the PRC to provide newly renovated learning spaces, including a newly renovated learning, meeting, and work spaces for the department.

The proposed renovation includes the following:

• Workroom: $10,000
• Conference Room: $20,000
• Main Office and Reception: $20,000
• Large Testing Room: $20,000
• Small Testing Rooms: $30,000
  • Total: $100,000

Patriot Resource Center Services Include:

• Special Class Placement: Small class placement is available for students with professionally diagnosed learning disabilities or other learning challenges. Special Class Placement services include individualized instruction, an IEP, and accomodations in the regular, mainstream classes.
• 504 Student Accomodations: These students do not have special class placement, but they need accommodations in their classes. The accommodations may include, but are not limited to copies of the instructor’s notes, extended time or exams, a quiet place for exams, a reader, and preferential seating in a classroom.
• Study Lab: Study lab is in place to provide a daily opportunity for students in grades 6-12 to have a structured study time with assistance as needed. During study lab, students receive guidance in developing and expanding organizational skills, reviewing classroom concepts, or completing exams from other classes.
• Book Club: Book Club is an Elementary School level program providing remediation or reinforcement of academic skills in a small class setting. Students meet daily to enhance reading or other academic skills. Diagnostic Testing is not required for enrollment, and participation is at the request of the student’s teacher and parents.
• Other PRC Services Include: After-School Tutoring, Speech and Language Therapy, Occupational Therapy, Psycho-Educational Testing
