Academic Catalogue:

  • If you had not already, please take time to review our first published Academic Catalogue (click here). As you carefully read, celebrate with the entire UCA community this milestone accomplishment; it is the result of 3+ years of hard work to start a Christ-centered high school in the south suburbs of Chicago.

Cruciform Grace: UCA’s 2021 Observation of Lent:

  • Our theme for the month of March is Cruciform Grace. In a non-official capacity, UCA will observe the Lenten season during March in anticipation of Resurrection Sunday. Click through the slideshow of images below to see the plans for chapels this month.

March Mission Month:

  • This month, we are highlighting the mission of Unity Christian Academy: empowering a diverse community, united by Christ, to achieve excellence in education for the flourishing of all creation. To this end, we have a goal of receiving 300 donations to UCA by March 31. Donations of any amount count toward that goal.

  • Every Wednesday this month at 7:30 p.m., Mr. Okuley will have conversations with UCA partners centered around their reasons for supporting UCA. You can watch these conversations on our YouTube channel & Facebook page. We encourage you to share these conversations as a way to invite others to be a part of our 300 donations goal.
