What Weatherford Christian School does
Mission
Our mission is to provide a christ-centered educational environment where children are equipped for lives of christian leadership and service. With a goal to glorify god, we emphasize the spiritual development of our students - striving for excellence in academics, citizenship, athletics, community service, and every other aspect of the educational process.
As stated on its FY2025 Form 990.
Programs
Academic program - wcs provides a challenging, college-prep academic program that includes technology training, foreign language, and fine arts. Self-discipline and clear, concise expectations are emphasized in an atmosphere of mutual respect. Faculty members provide extra help as needed, and tutoring can be arranged. The bible is part of the daily curriculum and all grades participate in chapel services twice a week. Wcs teaches from the perspective of a biblical christian worldview. A well- rounded education is more than just reading, writing and arithmetic; it includes the knowledge that we exist to serve god and reflect him in our daily lives. Wcs teaches students to be self-disciplined and to have a strong sense of responsibility. Wcs promotes mental and emotional maturity of its students by teaching them how to serve both god and man within their community. Our school hosts about 430 students.

The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2017, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2017, 50 means half. The number beside each label in the key is where it ended. The shaded band is where the middle 50% of its peers' revenue would sit, given their growth.
Balance sheet
Total assets and total liabilities at each year end, in dollars. The largest one-year move in total assets was 2021 to 2022, from $7.7M to $10M (+30%).
How it's funded, over time
Each bar is one year's revenue split into where it came from, and every bar is the same height — these are shares, not amounts, so a year that raised twice as much looks the same size. Hover a bar for the split.
8% of WEATHERFORD CHRISTIAN SCHOOL’s revenue is contributions — more earned-revenue than three-quarters of its peers (48% for the typical peer).
Surplus & reserves

Leadership and staff
The officers, directors, trustees and key employees listed on each return. Joined and no longer listed compare each filing with the year before, matching people by surname and first initial; a year after a gap, or a roster under three people, has no comparison.
Who funds it, year by year
2017 → 2023: the base broadened from 2 funders to 4 funders, grant income rose $53k → $79k.
4 of 11 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 13% of grant dollars received. That money is really individual donors directing a sponsor; the institutions to cultivate are the non-DAF funders.

“Effective funders” = inverse Herfindahl index (1 / Σ shareᵢ²) — the number of equal-sized funders that would give the same concentration. Trends are read to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving. FY2024–FY2026 are still being filed and are shown unshaded; they do not move any figure on this page.
How long its funders stay
50% of WEATHERFORD CHRISTIAN SCHOOL's funders are still giving 3 years after their first grant; 36% give in more than one year at all.
Share of funders still giving k years after their first recorded grant, pooled across every acquisition cohort. A funder counts as retained in a year only if it made a grant that year. Measured to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving — a funder cannot be counted as lapsed in a year most filers have not reached.
Where its funders are
WEATHERFORD CHRISTIAN SCHOOL draws 81% of its grant income from funders outside Texas, across 5 states in all.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $118k arriving through sponsors registered in 4 states is excluded from the map and the split above: a sponsor holds money on a donor’s behalf, so its registered address would place those dollars somewhere no donor need ever have been. Trends are read to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving. FY2024–FY2026 are still being filed and are shown unshaded; they do not move any figure on this page.
