Mount Airy Christian Academy is a special Christian school ministry designed to help meet the needs of a Christian family.
We exist for the purpose of maturing students academically, physically, spiritually, and socially.
We are looking for Christian fathers, mothers, and children who will support this ministry as we partner together to educate students with excellence.

In order to build a ministry such as this the foundation must be secure, solid and never changing.
For that reason, Mount Airy Christian Academy is based upon the Word of God.
