The Admissions Process
The admissions process described below is for applicants to the Garden School (Kinder) Grammar School (1st - 6th), Logic School (7th - 9th), and Rhetoric School (10th -11th). We have created a thorough admissions process in an attempt not to be exclusive but to be inclusive of families who strongly desire a classical Christian education. Berean Christian Academy is a school committed to academic excellence and spiritual development. Instilling in students a love of learning and providing an orderly, nurturing atmosphere are our priorities. We desire to create a community where grace and respect override differences and a unity of the Holy Spirit prevails.

Once BCA has received the completed application with all required documents and the student’s assessment score, applicants will be scheduled for a family interview with members of our admissions committee. The purpose of this interview is for discussing the compatibility of the student’s and family’s goals with the school’s methods and philosophy. This is an integral part of the admissions process.
