Additionally, your child will enjoy smaller class sizes and have access to a tailored plan that matches their learning style. This ensures they’re given the best possible opportunity to succeed and grow. In addition to following the Abeka curriculum, we also focus on the teachings of the King James Version of the Bible, which is used by the Shining Light Baptist Church, an extension of our school. Along with this, your child will participate in regular chapel services where that can continue to build their spirituality in a peaceful, loving, and welcoming environment.

FAQs About Kindergarten
For many children, kindergarten is the first opportunity they have to experience formal education. If this is the case for your child, it makes your choice of school significant, as it sets a strong foundation for their future. At Shining Light Academy, we understand the important role that kindergarten plays and have worked hard to ensure our space sets your child up for success. Some of the common questions we get about our kindergarten program are answered below.
What curriculum does your kindergarten program follow?
We use the Abeka curriculum, which is a Christian-based educational program. It was developed by Pensacola Christian College and emphasizes traditional academic subjects taught from a biblical worldview. It is known for its structured, rigorous approach and strong focus on phonics, grammar, and arithmetic, as well as its inclusion of moral and character development.
How can you support my child's unique learning style?
You will find that our classes are much smaller than those found in the public school system. This allows for more tailored educational plans to ensure your child gets the resources and support they need.
Does kindergarten truly matter?
Kindergarten helps children build early literacy, numeracy, and problem-solving skills while fostering curiosity and creativity. Just as importantly, it teaches social-emotional skills—like cooperation, empathy, and self-regulation—that help children succeed both in school and beyond. Ultimately, it’s where many children first learn how to be part of a community and develop confidence in their abilities as learners.
