Athens Christian Preparatory Academy  was established to answer a need in our community for a local private school option.  We are an inter-denominational 501c3 independent school dedicated  to Christian principles and excellence in academics.  ACPA has been accredited since 2010 by TEPSAC.

In the fall of 2018 ACPA merged with ACA, the local K-6 campus housed at First Baptist Church of Athens. We are proud to be able to offer a unified K-12 Christian educational option. 

Education establishes the framework through which every person interprets the world.  The perspective gained from the integration of a biblical worldview in academics ensures that God remains in correct context in all subjects.

ACPA believes in not only being college preparatory, but also life preparatory.  We know that today’s students need more than academics to be successful.  We teach to the “whole child”, mind-body-spirit. Our school emphasizes virtues like self-discipline, self-control, and accountability.  

Philosophy of Education

The educational philosophy of ACPA is that the truth of God permeates all academic subjects and so should not be taught in isolation. Education from a Biblical worldview that focuses on God, His infallible word, and His Creation, reveals to us His character and nature. God remains relevant to academics. We are heirs to a throne with Christ and therefore encourage the pursuit of excellence in academics, fine arts, athletics, and community service.

​We believe in "Excellence with a Soul"
