Lakeside Christian Academy is a growing Christian school located in the beautiful Ocala National Forest. There is so much to look forward to in the 26-27 school year. LCA will graduate its first seniors in 2027. Several of our seniors were with us in year 1 when we were "Building Bridges Academy" and had only 2 grades. Now with grades 6-12, we are launching FFA for Middle and High School, expanding tutoring options, and continuing to develop sports and fine arts. Scroll down for information about our academics, admissions, policies and school staff.
- LCA has around 100 students with an average fewer than 18 students per classroom with Middle School having a higher ratio than High School.
