Yorktown Christian Academy was established in 1994 by members of Yorktown Baptist Church. Their goal was to provide Christian families throughout the community with a Christ-centered educational experience. In 2002, YCA incorporated as an independent Christian school carrying out that mission for new generations. YCA is a member of the Association of Christian Schools International (ACSI). ACSI has approximately 5,300 member schools that represent over 1.3 million students in 100 countries.
