(AMERICAN GREATNESS) – A private Christian school in Missouri has learned the hard way that alienating donors with divisive ideological posturing can lead to bad outcomes.

The Urban Christian Academy in Kansas City is closing its doors at the end of the school year after losing 80 percent of its funding due to its adoption of “LGBTQIA+ affirming” messaging. The acronym LGBTQIA stands for “lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer and/or questioning, intersex, asexual/aromantic/agender.”

UCA is a private K-8 Christian school with an enrollment of 100 students providing “a tuition-free” “rigorous and equitable education” according to its website. The school’s troubles began early last year after it amended its long mission statement to include a paragraph that read in part: “We are an affirming school. We stand with the LGBTQIA+ community and believe in their holiness. We celebrate the diversity of God’s creation in all its varied and beautiful forms.”
