Description

About Us

LifeWise Academy is a released time religious instruction program that exists to reach public school students with the gospel _during school hours_.

Under released time law, students may be released from public school during the day to receive religious instruction, provided the program is off school property, privately funded and parent-permitted.

We believe released time is the greatest missed opportunity of the American church to reach the next generation with the gospel.
