Rising Toward the Future
Support the RTF Fund – Help Us Build Our New High School
Sunlight Christian Academy is growing rapidly. What began with just 24 students in 2006 has grown to over 730 students today. Our middle and high school enrollment is expanding so quickly that by Fall 2026, we will surpass the capacity of our current facilities.
To continue providing a high-quality, Christ-centered education for the next generation, we are launching the RTF (Rising Toward the Future) Fund — a $3 Million capital campaign to build a new high school facility.
Campaign Goals
- $750,000 – Strengthening our Base (immediate facility needs)
- $2,250,000 – Preparing for our Future (new high school building)
Timeline
- Late 2025 / Early 2026 — Identify Location
- Spring 2026 — Secure Location & Begin Necessary Renovations
- August 2026 — Begin New School Year in the Expanded Facility
Your support of the RTF Fund will help us expand our campus, accommodate growing enrollment, and continue our mission of shining the light of God’s Word into the hearts and minds of our students.
Together, we are Rising Toward the Future.
