Bartlett Christian Academy
(BCA), a ministry of Bartlett Church, is dedicated to providing
superior academic standards in a Christian environment. The
purpose of a Christian education is to develop individual attitudes
that focus on God first, then the world through His eyes.
We
believe the education of children is a directive from God. "Train
up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not
depart from it" (Proverbs 22:6). It is the parents'
responsibility to ensure their children are nurtured in a Christian
environment; that their environment prepares them for the real world by
giving them the standards of life as taught in the Bible.
Therefore, the school exists as an extension of the home to meet this
obligation and is committed to working with parents in every aspect of
the child's development. Recognizing each child differs in
abilities, our task will be to encourage, and expect, individuals to do
their best. "For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus
for good works, which God prepared beforehand, that we should walk in
them" (Ephesians 2:10).
