Our Story
Co-Founders Chassidi Martin and Kendall Helmer began their journey by homeschooling their children together. Initially meeting in homes and later at Harvest Vineyard Church, they envisioned a larger mission: to create a loving and authentic Christian school environment that empowers all children, regardless of their socioeconomic status. Inspired by their visit to Joshua Christian Academy in Des Moines, Iowa, they were motivated to establish a similar nurturing space in Waterloo. With community support, Royal Legacy Christian Academy has transformed this vision into reality.
