LCA is an exciting learning program designed for ages 6 weeks through preschool age.  Our programs are Christ-centered with the guidance of Christian leaders and teachers.  We view our role as a partnership with the parents to meet each child’s need.The Christian school is not a school just merely for the sake of academics, but for the sake of fulfilling the church’s God-ordained role in carrying out the Christian education mandate (Deut. 6:7, Prov. 22:6, II Tim. 3:15-17). Just as we believe it would be wrong to place our children under the influence of godless teachers, so we believe it would be wrong to place them under the influence of godless, humanistic readers and teaching materials.Character training is one of the supreme goals of Christian education.  God says, â€œTrain up a child in the way he should go; and when he is old, he will not depart from itâ€Â (Prov. 22:6).  Children must be trained, line upon line, precept upon precept, day after day.To train means to exercise, to discipline, to teach and form by practice.  When a person is trained, it becomes part of his character to do what he has been taught.  It is built into his spirit, and he has to go against his own spirit to do the wrong thing.  Training builds habits that are right, and training must take place all through the day, not merely in a “character lessonâ€Â taught once a day or once a week.We train our students to do the following:1. respect authority
2. pay attention
3. obey willingly and immediately
4. apply themselves to the task at hand
5. learn rules and apply them
6. do their best
7. learn to work hard
8. develop habits of orderliness, carefulness, obedience, honesty, accomplishment, cooperation, perseverance, self-control, attentiveness, fairness, confidence, responsibility, effort, steadfastness, discipline, endurance, helpfulness, neatness, patience, judgment, and respect.It is not enough to simply talk about doing right.  We will provide an orderly, organized classroom where working hard and doing right are the accepted standards.  Our students will find it easier to concentrate on the work, and developing character traits will become more natural.

LCA is an outreach ministry ofÂLegacy Church, a non-denominational church in Akron pastored byÂToddÂ& StephanieÂHearnsberger. Our center was started on November 9, 1998 and founded by Pastor Todd and his wife, Stephanie.
 PastorÂTodd and StephanieÂhave always had a heart and a love for children. The vision of this preschool was originally put in the heart of Pastor Dennis B. Condon, our church's pastor emeritus. In his 30+ years of pastoring, he has started a number of other Christian-based daycares/preschools, as well as a Christian academy for schoolage children. This same vision for establishing high-quality, Christ-centered child care and education has been applied here atÂLegacy Church in our Legacy Childcare Academy.
ÂÂÂ OurÂfacility gives a warm invitation to parents and students. Plans are already in the works to build a new facility and compliments our church's Christian school,ÂLegacy Prep Christian Academy.
