🌟 Welcome to Royal International Christian Academy
“Train up a child in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not depart from it.” – Proverbs 22:6
At Royal International Christian Academy (RICA), we believe education is not only about academic knowledge but also about shaping character and nurturing faith. Guided by our vision to be the premier Christian school, we are committed to raising young leaders who are equipped with:
- Commendable character rooted in Christlike values
- Academic excellence that prepares them to thrive in every area of life
- A strong foundation built through true partnership with parents
This mission is inspired by Proverbs 22:6, reminding us of our sacred calling to guide children in the way they should go so they will remain faithful to God’s truth throughout their lives.
Choosing RICA means joining a family where teachers, parents, and students work hand in hand to pursue excellence—spiritually, academically, and in life. Here, your child will be mentored, challenged, and encouraged to live out their God-given calling.
On behalf of the RICA community, we warmly welcome you. We are excited to partner with you in raising the next generation of world changers for Christ.
