Head of School's Welcome

Welcome, Dr. Matt Johnson!

Dear LCA Families,


I am excited to bring an important update and announcement to you! After several months of an intentional and prayerful process, we are excited to announce that Life Christian Academy has selected a new Head of School, Dr. Matt Johnson. Over the past few months, we feel that God has confirmed and clarified that Mr. Johnson is the individual to help lead Life Christian Academy into the great future that is in front of us. 

Matt brings with him years of experience in Christian education, serving in a variety of roles. He and his wife, Andrea, have felt clarity in their hearts that Tacoma and the opportunity to serve with Life Center in leading Life Christian Academy is exactly what God has been preparing them for. 

Matt has a passion for Christian Education and will be a great fit into where we have been and where we are headed as a school community. I am writing to express my gratitude to Michelle Cox for being willing to serve as our interim Head of School. Michelle and Matt have already been in conversation, and this will allow us to create a very seamless transition plan as Matt steps into his new leadership role here with LCA. We are still working on the specific details of his starting date with us, and we will let this community know when that date is finalized. 

I ask that you pray for the Johnsons as they prepare for their move to Tacoma and begin the process of settling into a new community and beginning to forge new friendships.  

Life Christian Academy has been impacting the lives of students for nearly 50 years now, and we are thrilled for the days ahead! 

Great days ahead,
Tyler Sollie
Senior Pastor | Life Center
