MEET RANDY AND LIZ

Randy and Liz Mains have shared life’s adventures together since their marriage in 1997, moving from sunny Southern California to the Kansas City area that very same year. In 2007, when their eldest daughter turned five, they began the rewarding journey of homeschooling their four children. Since then, they have watched three of them graduate and step into new seasons of life—and in the blessing of their first grandchild.

Through God’s perfect timing, Randy and Liz founded Legacy Christian Academy as a way to bring home educators and their families together, creating a place of support, encouragement, and community for this extraordinary calling.

Liz’s own story began much the same way—she was home educated from 5th grade through high school graduation in Southern California, alongside four of her six siblings. Her family was actively involved in a homeschool organization similar to Legacy Christian Academy, an experience that left a lasting impression. She fondly remembers the deep friendships, fun activities, and sense of belonging it provided, as well as the gift her parents gave her through a personal and tailored education.

Now, as the primary educator in their home, Liz—together with Randy—strives to pass along these same opportunities and experiences to their own children (and grandchildren!), and to inspire other families to do the same.
