Tennessee Christian Academy is a K-12, Christ-centered, non-denominational, state certified school. We offer parents in Cleveland/Bradley County an alternative for the education and formation of their children. We strive to develop the student in all the important components of their lives. We believe that God has made each person an intellectual, social, spiritual and physical being. Failure to develop any of these components results in a malfunctioning person.
Christian Education is much more than an academic discipline taught by a teacher who is a Christian. Christian Education represents a totally different world-view than secular education. At Tennessee Christian Academy we view history and culture through the lens of Scripture, embracing a God-centered world-view. Man is created by God and is responsible to God.
Classes at TCA begin with prayer. The Bible is taught at all age levels. The Ten Commandments are posted, and Chapel attendance is required. We pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America, proudly using the phrase "under God".
Tennessee Christian Academy is not affiliated with, or sponsored by any religious denomination or local church. We respect the theological biases of our parents and students. Most Christian faiths are represented in our student population. The faculty and administration represent a variety of faith traditions.
Tennessee Christian Academy is governed by an independent board of directors, with diverse backgrounds and denominational affiliations. The board is responsible for establishing policies and selecting a Headmaster who is responsible for the operation of the Academy.
Parents and family members are strongly encouraged to be involved in the developmental processes of their children. The academy in no way seeks to replace the authority and responsibilities of the parents.
