My children attend the Academy and we are so greatful. They are encouraged to develop educationally as well as high moral conduct. We intend to keep our children at ACA thru 8th grade. I only wish the athletic, science and foregin language programs were much stronger.
I'm from Dallas orginally and I had my child in Plano schools, and was pleasantly surprised to find the academy so diligent in academics and personal care for it's students. I think the amount of tuition is negligible when you consider the quality of education. The new classrooms are nice as well. The parents are very involved and I found the families to be very nice and welcoming. East Texas twang is hardly heard in these hallways, mostly excellent grammar and good manners. A great example for other schools! Adena Wilder
My daughter has attended ACA from K-7 and will finish next year in 8th grade. It is amazing to see a learning environment where the children are so eager and excited to learn. This school has been such a blessing!
The teachers teach to each child individually instead of holding them back because others do not understand. My kids are excited to tell me about everything they have learned each day and how interesting it was. On top of the education my children have been loved, treated and disciplined in a 'Christ like way'. They learn the Bible better everyday and love sharing it with others.
My daughter will start her 7th year at ACA this month. Teacher quality, spiritual development, office and secretarial leaders, parent involvement down to cafeteria workers are above and beyond the call of duty. I would also like to thank the church members at First Baptist Church for making this possible. Never under estimate what a blessing this school has been for my daughter and our community.
Athens Christian Academy has been a blessing to our daughter and our family. We could not ask for a more loving, yet educational environment in which her formative years are being developed. The staff and teachers are our extended family!
My daughter attended Athens Christian Academy from grades K-6 where she recieved an excellent education while being nurtured and guided spiritually. She was a straight 'A' student her entire career because of the one on one attention and direction that she recieved from her teachers. The administrator,office staff and church staff were caring, compassionate and concerned about the needs of each child and family. Always available and willing to assist in any way possible I felt comfortable going to them with any requests or questions great or small. I initially chose ACA because of the discipline policies and procedures as well as the excellence in academics and spiritual nurturing. The standard is 'Excellence' at ACA and the students and staff reflect that standard. ACA provides a firm foundation meeting the needs of the whole child not just academics. The staff at ACA reflect that it's not just a job, it's a ministry.
Teachers do a great job! The curriculum is for academic excellence. They use Concordia Science, Saxon Math, Abeka Bible curriculum, etc. Discipline is not a problem. Parents are highly motivated and cooperate with the school.
This is a wonderful school! It has been nothing but a huge blessing to my child. The teachers and staff are loving, caring, supportive, and the teachers run well managed classrooms. This school, the children, and parents are like one big happy family. The academics far exceed local schools and the overall atmosphere is exactly how a christian school should be. The children and parents are kind to one another and all work together for the good of the kids and the school. There are strong christian beliefs taught and demonstrated by all. The children get a high quality education in a warm, happy, loving, fun, Christ-centered environment. My child's last three years at this school have been more wonderful than I could ever express!
