Heart and
History of Brentwood Christian Academy
 In 2001, the founders, families, teachers, and board members
of Christian Community Academy, now Brentwood Christian
Academy, desired to begin a program designed to partner with
the family. In the heart of these beginnings, the program
was established to support the integrity of the family while
offering a college preparatory academy whose purpose is to
nurture the whole student, heart and mind, within the
context of a biblical world view to prepare them for lives
of integrity, learning, and service to their communities.
In 2007, the academy grew significantly, and that growth
brought change. However, the quality teaching, the
outstanding student body, and the supportive parents stayed
the same.
The focus and purpose did not change, because all teachers,
founders, board members committed their lives to Christ and
believe that “while we may make our plans, He directs our
steps.”
The Program:
BCA offers academic excellence, maintains a
non-denominational Christ-centered curriculum, and highly
values the God-given uniqueness of each student who attends
BCA. The course of study at BCA is designed to prepare
students for college entrance and achievement. Within this
atmosphere, students are encouraged to explore logical
thinking, analysis, evaluation, problem solving, and group
discussion in a Christian setting, taught by Christian
teachers.
Quality Teachers:
Teachers are valued for their place, not only in the
program, but also for the calling that God has placed on
their lives. The teachers are part of the heart of BCA. The
teachers believe that God created this world to explore, to
learn from, and to understand. For the BCA teacher, this is
not just a job, but a vocation to which he or she is called.
He or she loves the students and the subjects they teach.
Much prayer and searching have gone into finding the
teachers for BCA students.
One of BCA’s greatest strengths is the partnership between
the parents and teachers. The founding members of BCA
realized that experienced teachers helped the families
realize strengths and weaknesses of their students in
specific subject areas. By partnering with these experienced
teachers, they can best serve the needs of the student.
Brentwood Christian Academy seeks to encourage and support
the integrity of the family, which is uniquely designed by
God to nurture children. Thank you for choosing
Brentwood Christian Academy!
