a letter from G A R Y B . A R NOL D

O

ur Annual Review is a retrospective on the grace of God that has been poured out on our school.

When we returned to campus in the late summer of 2020, we lay claim to the strong promise of Romans 8:37: “No, in all things, we are more than conquerors in Him who loved us.” When the world around us was turned upside down, we said, “No!” When others feared reopening school, we said “No!” When the world wondered if life was out of control, we said, “No!” “No, in all things, we are more than conquerors in Him who loved us.”

(Romans 8:37) We didn’t always feel like conquerors, but the fact remains, we are.

As you will witness in our Annual Review, we are not “more than conquerors” in ourselves. We are “more than conquerors IN HIM.” Little Rock Christian Academy is His school and always will be. He has done great things!

That said, no matter what the years may bring, we echo the Psalmist who writes: I lift my eyes unto the hills - where does my help come from?

My help comes from the Lord, Maker of heaven and earth.

ANNUAL REVIEW

In the following six verses, the Psalmist reminds us five times that the Lord WATCHES over us. That is the reason we are “more than conquerors.” That is the reason we came through the pandemic without missing a day of school.

That is why we report the good news of a year full of grace and mercy!

In all things, He watches over us. Read on to bear witness with me.

Gary B. Arnold, Ed. D. President / Head of School

T

he 2020-21 school year began with a mixture of excitement and caution as a new group of seniors entered their final year of school at Little Rock Christian Academy with a student option to do in-person learning here on campus or virtual instruction from home. Classroom sizes were restricted with social distancing protocols.

In addition, many families with small children elected to keep their students home for part if not all of the school year. The results were a decrease in school enrollment for the first time in many years. This decrease may have even been more pronounced had families not stepped forward to assist families facing unusual personal or family financial hardship in this year of the pandemic.

In these uncertain times, there were many of you, alumni, families and friends, who stepped forward to assist the school in procuring the needed supplies, furniture, fixtures, learning devices, and equipment, as well as to make facility modifications to meet the necessary protocols to keep school going each and every day of the school year. And with God’s provisions, protective hand, and guidance we did just that.

In fact, with your support we have been able to improve the indoor and outdoor facilities of our campus benefiting Little Rock Christian Academy for years to come (photos, pages 12-13). The improvements made over the last 15 months include: • New fresh air handling and purification systems • New learning devices - creating a 1:1 student to device ratio (4th-12th grades) • Improved restroom atomization and sanitized water filling stations • New outdoor furnishings to accommodate increased outdoor activity • Construction of STEM lab in Elementary Gym • Conversion of auxiliary rooms in Elementary to classrooms • Renovation of cottage for Learner Services • Playground expansion at Elementary and Middle School • Middle School security enhancements • Junior High sidewalk, drainage, and play area improvement • Modular unit installation for Fine Arts workroom and fabrication 4

We know that trials may be put in our way to make us stronger and to draw us closer together. While 2020-21 was a challenging year for our community it has definitely made the LRCA community stronger. There is evidence of this in the fact we enter 2021-22 with record enrollment and strength in our financial position with our families’ commitment to the school.

We thank you for your support and our Mighty God for protecting, leading and blessing Little Rock Christian Academy in this unprecedented time.

May God’s Grace Abound, Jim Fink Chief Financial Officer

a letter from JOH N MC MOR R A N “So we’re not giving up. How could we! Even though on the outside it often looks like things are falling apart on us, on the inside, where God is making new life, not a day goes by without his unfolding grace. These hard times are small potatoes compared to the coming good times, the lavish celebration prepared for us. There’s far more here than meets the eye. The things we see now are here today, gone tomorrow. But the things we can’t see now will last forever.”

2 Corinthians 4:16-18 MSG

O

ver the last few months, the Lord has helped me understand the importance of community. We truly need real fellowship with each other. Life can get so crazy and hectic on us so fast that we forget that God is right in the middle of all this… calling us to look to Him for balance, hope, and clarity. One incredible mystery of walking with God is the fact that the Lord has designed life to flourish within Christian community. This is what we have here. As different as we are, He has brought us together within the LRCA community to walk with one another and share life with each other. To lift up and support each other. To pray for and dream with each other. To honor and respect each other… especially within our differences. What a gift! We are not alone! This is a community.

On behalf of your Board of Trust, thank you for trusting LRCA with your precious children. Thank you for the sacrifices you make to be here. Thank you for your investment in the future generation. Thank you for your generosity.

Thank you for being a part of the Warrior family! We are in this together.

A HUGE thank you to Gary, Ann, Jim, Johnny, Justin, Tyler, LeAnn and Lynn for your careful and thoughtful preparation to safely start school this year.

Your trust in the Lord is evident and clear. Your wisdom, determination and hard work are appreciated. Thank you for loving our families like you do.

Thank you teachers and learner services staff! What an amazing group of people! The Lord has called each of you here to use your talents and gifts as you pour out knowledge and grace over these students. The joy and creativity you bring each day is inspiring. You are still on the front lines with the Lord preparing the next generation. What a responsibility! Thank you for investing your lives, your hearts, and your careers in this special place, Warriorville.

To our facilities and security team, thank you! The campus has never looked so good and felt so safe. We appreciate all the work you do for the Lord behind the scenes.

God is so good to us! Even when, as the verse above mentions, we don’t feel it and life looks like it is falling apart. God’s unfolding grace lifts us up and draws us into fellowship with Him and each other. Look for ways you can bring hope and joy to someone today. The world around us desperately needs to see Jesus as we lift up one another with a genuine concern for those God has placed in our path.

It is a great time to be a Warrior living life together with such great families and friends!

Thank you.

KINGDOM UNITY: 2 0 2 0 -2 0 21 B OA R D OF T RU S T R E A DI NG S

T

he 2020-2021 school year presented our Board with a very fertile opportunity to deepen our understanding of what Kingdom unity and diversity really mean in the body of Christ at our dear school. We call it the pursuit of racial shalom. In an effort to dig deep, our Board of Trust devoted themselves to a year of reading scripture, prayer, and studying eight significant books on racial reconciliation. One of these books in particular, “The Third Option”, stood out to us as an authentic guide for finding common ground and honoring one another in Christ. Our Board was also impacted by a compilation of black literature spanning 400 years that is part of our High School curriculum and has become essential material for our students’ understanding of our oneness in Christ.

-Dr. Gary B. Arnold, Head of School

America’s Original Sin: Racism, White Privilege, and the Bridge to a New America Jim Wallis examines the systemic, historical issues of race in our country, speaking candidly to Christians to work toward healing.

Oneness Embraced: Reconciliation, the Kingdom, and How We are Stronger Together Tony Evans illustrates the Truth in God’s Word as a kingdom-based approach to matters of social justice, the church, history, and culture.

Black Voices in American Literature: A Small Sample of Literature from 1773-2021 LRCA’s English Department compiled this sampling of African American literature spanning the works of 15 different authors.

The Third Option: Hope for a Racially Divided Nation Author Miles McPherson discusses the need for learning to see people how God sees them--one of God’s precious creations.

The Color of Compromise: The Truth About the American Church’s Complicity in Racism Author Jemar Tisby provides a timely narrative urging today’s Christians to act and work toward racial justice.

His Truth is Marching On: John Lewis and the Power of Hope In Jon Meacham’s best-seller, he chronicles civil rights leader and U.S. Congressman John Lewis’ painful quest for justice spanning the 1950’s to the present.

WORKS OF HEART LRCA’S ANNUAL FUND & WARRIOR BLITZ 2020

E

very year, Warrior Blitz kicks off the Annual Fund in order to pay for enhancements NOT covered by tuition. Improvements touched every corner of campus, every student, faculty, and staff member.

Not only were many of capital improvements accomplished with these funds, but a large number of third-party qualified families were blessed by dollars earmarked for tuition assistance during the 2020-21 school year.

God’s provision and your dedication and commitment to Christian education have made amazing things possible in Warriorville.

The Warrior Blitz 2020 goal was $150,000. The actual amount raised was $168,901! The theme of the week-long event was Families Helping Families meaning 100% of the money raised was used to advance the education of Warrior students. Also, a new focus on acts of kindness and service projects

was incorporated. Warriors of all ages rose to the challenge to serve others well and be more than conquerors.

Warrior Blitz would not be possible without the tireless efforts of the Parent Teacher Fellowship and a host of volunteers. Because of corporate sponsors who generously partnered with us as well, the cost of ALL Blitz week activities were covered. Pediatrics Plus has been the Warrior Blitz presenting sponsor for all six years. Additionally, Thrivent Financial, and Northshore Golf Range contributed to the week of fun.

2020 Blitz Chairperson Megan Garrison, along with PTF President Stacey Knoernschild, and PTF President-elect Suzanne Waters led the team with zeal, creativity, and love for LRCA.

We’re jumping for joy over God’s great blessings at LRCA!
