Educating and discipling leaders for life.
The DCA Difference
Christian Curriculum
A Christian education is more than starting the day with a prayer. We use a tested and academically rigorous Bible-based curriculum, that weaves God’s story throughout the school day. Our goal is to impart a worldview that explores and explains God’s creation and our role in that created world.
Caring Teachers
Having the best teachers in our classrooms is critical for providing the best education possible! In our classes, you’ll find teachers who are passionate about learning and want to see every student succeed. They see their role as a mission to care for and encourage their students, helping them find motivation and self discipline, while also discipling students and investing in their character.
Creative Opportunities
Of course we seek subject mastery in the basics, like reading, writing, and arithmetic. But, as a private school, we have the freedom to provide creative learning opportunities so that our students are prepared to take on our modern world. We focus on age appropriate lessons in technology and the arts, as well as special instruction in spelling, speech, and handwriting. With our small class sizes, we encourage collaborative teamwork, as well as the skills to work independently.
Close-Knit Community
We believe that we are called to educate and disciple in partnership with our students’ families and home churches. Parents are encouraged to be active in the school and in their child’s education – with the goal of creating a cohesive community that uplifts and supports the students, each other, and the school broadly.
Admissions
Thank you for your interest in Dalhart Christian Academy! Our mission calls for us to provide a quality Christian education for all – and we invite you to learn more about our school to see if it’s the right choice for your family. We offer open enrollment throughout the school year, with enrollment opening to the public in the April before the school year.
Enrollment for the 2022-2023 school year will open on April 1. We have a steadfast commitment to small class sizes, with limits well below the federal mandates regarding teacher-to-student ratios. Many of our classes reach capacity, but we maintain an active waiting list in those instances. To inquire about availability in a specific classroom, please call the school office at 806.244.6482.
Scholarships
We are pleased to offer scholarships, tuition assistance, and discounts to help keep tuition as affordable as possible for families. If there is a financial need, we encourage families to apply for a scholarship. Applications are evaluated by our Board of Directors and/or the entity that sponsors the scholarship to determine the awarded amount. We are so thankful to our donors and sponsoring churches who provide much needed scholarship assistance for families!

What People Are Saying
Amazing School
What an amazing school! I couldn't ask for a better school and teachers for my boys!
Individual Attention
Small class sizes with attention to each child given daily. The staff and teachers learn about each child individually and focus on their strengths to help propel them forward.
Building Character
The best qualities is the fact that my kids can come home and tell me new things about Jesus that I didn't know. They love going to school. Their attitudes have changed tremendously since starting school here. We love it.
Spiritual Investments
Focusing on the spiritual growth and acknowledging there is a battle for our kids’ hearts.
Pursuing Excellence
DCA was the best option for our family, because it combines superior academics with a focus on producing good people. I really like that the school is open to changing and expanding and becoming the best school it can be for its students.
