Mt. Pisgah Christian Academy (MPCA) will always hold a special place in my heart. It was where I attended school for a few years, it was where I was given the first opportunity to teach and it will be where I send my children one day. MPCA offers grades Kindergarten-12th Grade and is continually growing and helping families in our commnity train their children with Christian education.

From the Mount Pisgah Christian Academy website ...

"Mount Pisgah Christian Academy (MPCA) operates as a ministry of Mount Pisgah Baptist Church. MPCA operates with a statement of faith consisting of Bible doctrines that will be taught and maintained. The Academy will assist parents in their responsibility (Deut. 6:6-7) in conforming their children into "the image of His Son" (Rom. 8:29). As the home, church, and Academy work together, God's plan for each child will be discovered. Our entire Academy program is designed to help parents fulfill this command of God and to lead their children to a saving knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ and continual growth in Him. The Bible is the basis for our education and is the foundation of the ministry of this Academy. Without God's Word, there can be not true learning.

Our desire is to give the maximum knowledge of Christian living in light of God's Word, "that in all things He might have the preeminence" (Col. 1:18).  Even though knowledge is factually the same for the believer and unbeliever, no subject can be taught in its truth if its Originator is ignored. Our teachers are determined to help each parent "train up a child in the way he should go..." as they are instructed in Pro. 22:6. Our standards and regulations are in effect to help us do things decently and for our school to be pleasing to God."

Mt. Pisgah Christian Academy's staff is like no other teaching staff you'll find. Not only are they well educated and prepared to teach their students, they also incorporate God's word into every aspect of their curriculum. MPCA uses the A-Beka and Bob Jones curriculum. Each class begins their morning with Bible class and prayer.
