Wescare Christian Academy, along with Wescare Center for Children, is an auxiliary ministry of the First Wesleyan Church in Troy. The Wescare Center for Children daycare, currently located on Eldorado Street, opened in 1975 offering a Christian daycare alternative. On April 2, 1978, the church decided, “that Christian elementary education would also be offered as part of Wescare’s Program.” Thus, Wescare Christian Academy began. The first day of school for students was on August 22, 1978. During the same year, the construction of the new church building was completed, and both the church and the Academy moved into their new facilities located on Hwy 134 North, Troy. Wescare Christian Academy offers kindergarten through 12th grade education. Before and after school care is also provided. With God’s guidance, Wescare Christian Academy has provided Christian education to Montgomery County for more than 30 years.

Academic Distinctive – The key to quality education is a mastery of fundamental academic skills, language arts, math, science and social studies.
