Why Berean Academy?

If you think you know Berean Academy, take a closer look!

Berean Academy has been educating and equipping students with a biblical worldview for eighty years. That is a rich legacy, with third and fourth-generation families sending their children to the school. But if you think you know Berean Academy, we invite you to take another look and see for yourself.  We are intent on aligning what we do with the school’s mission and vision, including the partnership with the home and local church, academic excellence, a biblical worldview, and instilling Christ-like character. In addition to this, we are also laser-focused on preparing our students for the current culture and the future they will inherit. An example of this is our new entrepreneur elective this year for high school students and our ministry technology class, launched in 2024.  As Dr. Howard Hendricks, former pastor and professor at Dallas Theological Seminary, used to say, "Principles never change, but methods always do.” 

Berean Academy is dedicated to teaching and passing on a solid biblical worldview to our students in partnership with the home and local church. We are also committed to ensuring our students leave here with the knowledge and skills to help them succeed in whatever endeavors God leads them to, be it college, a trade, or as entrepreneurs who can innovate and solve real-world problems. We want our graduates to leave here as prepared as possible for the next phase of their lives, wherever and however God leads them.

At Berean Academy, we are committed to educating the whole child, impacting the head (intellect), heart (emotional/spiritual), and hands (actions) of our students. The students at Berean Academy consistently test, on average, 20 to 30 percentile points above national norms on standardized achievement tests across grade levels. The school also offers a well-rounded extracurricular program, including athletics, robotics, and visual/performing arts classes that are exceptional.  

Call the school office today for more information about Berean Academy as we “preserve the core” and innovate for the future. We are fully engaged in preparing the next generation of Christ followers, in partnership with the home and local church, to impact the world for God’s glory.
