Our Story
How it all started...
Carol Brengelman and Stacie Williams worked together at another small Christian school for about five years before God called them to open Ohio Christian Academy. In May of 2015, they met with Pastor Ray at Stratford Heights Church of God, and asked if he would allow them to start their school in the classrooms of the church. After much prayer and discussion with the board, they were given the church's blessing to open the school on June 24th, 2015. Carol and Stacie worked hard to open the school that fall. The school started with 25 students, grades K-12. God has had his hand on the school, and Carol and Stacie can share many testimonies of what God has done over the years and continues to do even today. As of 2023, Ohio Christian Academy has over 100 students, and 16 full-time staff members.

Where we are headed...
We at OCA are working hard to train students up so that they build Christ-like relationships based on Biblical truths, to share God's love through their words, actions, and talents. Our goal is to raise up Christian leaders by educating the whole child, Mind, Body, and Spirit.
