Richmond Academy is currently in the biggest project since the school began four years ago. In this special issue, you will see the expansion project taking place at 1900 West Main Street.
It has been through much prayer, faith and obedience that the Board of Directors are able to see God’s vision for our school unfold. We are thankful for the unity and faithfulness of our leaders, supporters and families. There are many people that make this all possible, and I know that there is a great blessing in store for all that participate in this project.
School starts August 28 and our new building will be ready. We look forward to another year with our returning students and the many new students joining our family.

Terry W. - With today's deteriorating society and the agendas being pushed at the public schools, I want my children in a school where they are exposed to the Truth of the Bible, not the truth according to man. Where they learn the moral values of Christ and God, and not he morals of the NEA or the relativistic truth of today's society. Where they will be pushed to excel and not pushed to the next grade just to move them on. Where they are taught to respect their teachers and not where the teachers are the enemy. That is why I think that a Christian education is important for my children and why I have them enrolled in Richmond Academy.

Living Word Christian Fellowship has graciously allowed us to use land next to their facility to build a 1,000 square foot building for our school. Living Word has been a faithful supporter of Richmond Academy for over three years. It is a wonderful testimony of what God can do between two organizations with like missions and visions for the Kingdom of God.
Many in the community have commented how amazing it is to see such a successful venture take place in Richmond. With strong leadership and persistent focus, we are a testimony that when God speaks and we obey, He follows through.
1 Thess 5:24 “Faithful is he that calleth you, who also will do it.“
It is His faithfulness to meet the needs of the children to ensure that they will grow up in the knowledge of the Lord. We are assisting families in fulfilling the commandment of God to parents found in Deut 6:5-10.
The new facility will have two offices, five large classrooms and a gymnasium. We also will have a chapel, faculty lounge, kitchen and library.
All of this is made possible by the direction of the Holy Spirit to the lives of both leaderships of Living Word and Richmond Academy.
Richmond Academy will continue to be independently governed, non-denominational, non-profit, accredited and community supported. We will continue to offer the highest level of training academically and spiritually. Even though we are growing our vision remains the same that God will make provision for every family desiring a private Christian education. Our tuition will continue to be the lowest and most affordable in east central Indiana.
We give many thanks to the Lord who has called us to this project and is faithfully seeing it to completion. We also thank the people of Living Word and Richmond Academy for giving of their time and efforts to construct the interior of the school. To David McIntosh, thank you for moving to Richmond for two months to help oversee the project.
