About Alpharetta Christian Academy

OUR MISSION STATEMENT:
The purpose of Alpharetta Christian Academy is to provide a social, spiritual, physical, and academic experience in a safe, caring, and loving environment.  Our founders purpose is three-fold:
  1. To provide assistance to parents in having a God-centered family.
  2. To provide an opportunity for the First Baptist Church of Alpharetta to share the good news of Jesus Christ with others and to minister to them.
  3. To provide an environment that will allow for the student's intellectual, social, physical and spiritual growth by offering a challenging educational program, instruction in the Bible and Christian character building.

It is our desire to help provide the spiritual and academic foundation on which each child enrolled can build upon in order to become a lifelong learner.
