Wheaton Academy expectations are high in the classroom and culture. The classes I took were challenging, and now that I am in college, I can say that they prepared me well.

I believe that redemption happens when students who have the mind of Christ rush to the world’s hardest and most difficult problems.

In thirty years, it won’t matter if my kitchen was redone or I drove the latest model car, but the impact on my children and grandchildren will be markedly different because of Wheaton Academy.
Liz HancockCurrent Parent
Wheaton Academy has taught me that once I see and treat others as human beings, differences don’t become a barrier, but a glue to connect and build relationships with others.

Socially, I’d say I’ve come a long way since my freshman year; anyone could tell that. But that doesn’t really matter compared to my spiritual growth over the last four years. I have consistently grown closer to Jesus, and that is the only change that I would ever ask for.

Wheaton Academy has been absolutely transformational in the lives of our kids. The influence that the teachers and staff have had on their lives has been so invaluable, so impactful, so life changing! While the drive to Wheaton Academy has been over 45 miles round trip, roughly 10,000 miles annually, the difference has been well worth the distance.
