Amazing. Caring. Community. Fun. Encouraging. Personal. Impactful. These are the words that come to mind when I think of The Kings Academy. My 3 daughters currently attend this school and this is their second year at TKA. I have seriously been blown away by this school. We live in one of the best school districts in the Bay Area but this school is overwhelming more impressive by leaps and bounds. The staff and teachers care about my children in and outside of the classroom. Many of them show up for their athletic games, performances and even personal events outside of school. They really care about who they are becoming as a person, not just as a student. The families are super involved and really want the best for their kids in terms of community and culture. I truly appreciate that my daughters are forming their own relationship with Christ and what that means to them in their lives. They've learned to stand up for others in their school, expect more from themselves in terms of personal character and encouraging others to live their best lives. They have some of the best mission service trips around the world that I've ever seen and the students really learn a lot about service, gratitude and how they can make an impact on others. The academics is challenging but it's not cut throat like other schools. There's no pressure to be ALL AP all the time. They encourage following your passion and pushing yourself in those areas but not because you have to. The school is a perfect size, not too big, not too small. They offer all the sport teams, visual performing arts and have an amazing marching band and robotics team. I am amazed that they can do all this on what I consider a very reasonable tuition by Bay Area standards. I CANNOT recommend this school enough! One of my comments to others when I talk about TKA is "I feel like we've won the lottery to be able to attend this school". It's THAT good!
