Summit Christian Academy

Summit Christian Academy offers a Christ-centered K-12 education rooted in a biblical worldview. In the fall of 2025, Enlightium Preparatory Academy (Enlightium Prep) will continue to provide this same curriculum with the STREAM approach to learning at the current location. Enrollment for the 2025-2026 school year is now open at www.EnlightiumPrep.com

To learn more and start the enrollment process, please visit www.EnlightiumPrep.com. If you have questions during the enrollment process and would like assistance, you may reply to this email or call the Enlightium Prep enrollment line: (509) 924-4618, option 4.

For the 2025-2026 school year, the tuition, annual fee, and facility fee have all been combined into one simple annual tuition price. Variable fees (e.g. hot lunch program, bus fee, and sports fee) will be charged separately based on participation.

The tuition rates have been increased to account for inflation and program changes, but current SCA students will have reduced introductory pricing as shown below. If you qualify for multiple discounts1, the lowest available discount will apply, as discounts are not combinable with introductory pricing. Tuition assistance is available on a case-by-case basis, which will be determined following a review process.
