West Suburban Christian Academy (WSCA) was a private, independent, non-denominational, evangelical Christian school located in Waukesha, Wisconsin. WSCA served students in preschool through eighth grade. The school operated from 1979 until it closed on June 30, 2010. ==History== Phil and Mary Ann Lee founded West Suburban Christian Academy in 1979 as Sonshine Christian School. It began with 33 students and three teachers. Over the years, the school moved several times to locations in Brookfield and Greenfield, and changed its name to West Suburban Christian Academy. In 1995, West Suburban found a permanent home in Waukesha. The school defeated Walgreens in a bid to purchase Waukesha's former Northview Elementary School campus, which became the first campus owned by the school. With 99 students from kindergarten through eighth grade, WSCA opened its new campus for the 1995-1996 school year. In the summer of 1996, WSCA began remodeling the old Northview school buildings. The school began to grow rapidly, tripling its enrollment over the next decade. In the fall of 1997, the 3- and 4-year-old preschool program was added. In April 2004, a building and were purchased a few blocks from the Northview campus. During the summer of 2004, the building was renovated to include eight classrooms, a science lab, media center, administrative offices, and commons areas. Known as the Silvernail Campus, this building served as WSCA's middle school from 2004-2009. The Silvernail Campus was closed following the 2008-09 school year. In 2008, WSCA began to experience a large exodus of students, whose parents could no longer afford the private school tuition. Despite multiple attempts to save WSCA, the loss of students, coupled with the multimillion-dollar debt incurred by the purchase of the Silvernail Campus in 2004, led to the board's decision to permanently close the school on June 30, 2010. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「West Suburban Christian Academy」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
