Overview
The purpose of Star Bethlehem Christian Academy is to equip students with the best academic Christian education by providing comprehensive instruction in core subjects.
We are dedicated to teaching divine principles of trust, loyalty, obedience, helpfulness, courtesy, kindness, cleanliness, and a host of other life long Godly attributes.
As a Christian school, students are taught the love of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, His Gospel, and His doctrine.
Our goal is to become a premiere Christian school reaching, teaching, and unleashing our future leaders.
By training boys and girls in a program study that is Christ-centered and Bible-based, it is our desire to cultivate a safe Christian environment for life-long learning.
SBCA offers an enjoyable learning experience and tender loving care for children that will hopefully encourage them to grow spiritually, intellectually, socially, and physically.
The mission of Calvary Christian School is to establish a partnership with Christian parents to provide for their kindergarten, elementary, middle school and high school students' Christian education.
The school endeavors to develop a Christian world view in the student through an integrated curriculum of Biblical truth as the foundation for all academic instruction, extra-curricular activities, and social interaction.
Emphasis is given to each student's total development, including his personal commitment and service to Jesus Christ, encouraging the students to allow their character to conform to the character of Christ, and helping the student achieve academic excellence.
It is in using this foundation that we hope each student will impact this world for Jesus Christ.
Calvary Christian School is a dynamic ministry devoted to providing an outstanding Christian education to the students who attend the school.
