Bergen County Christian Academy
Bergen County Christian Academy makes available a program which provides for the total education of the child - spiritual, moral, mental, social, and physical.
Only by a Christian philosophy may this be achieved. Thus, Bible training is not an extra but is an integral part of every area of training.
The secular and the sacred are fused together to form a comprehensive system of education. Small classes and individualized instruction by concerned Christian teachers is the rule rather than the exception.
The purpose of Christian education is to provide an environment to direct the processes of human development toward God's objectives of godliness of character and conduct.
The Christian school carries out those educational tasks that the family can not fulfill as efficiently or lacks the skills or resources to do as well as the school.

School Reviews

My daughter has been attending Bergen County Christian Academy since Kindergarten and she is now in 5th grade. Their biblical world view is very strong and one of the main reasons that my daughter attends BCCA. The faculty are highly qualified and dedicated to their profession. Class size ratio is small and offers students a lot of one on one time with their faculty. This is a small community but with a BIG heart and Jesus is first and foremost.
