At Lighthouse Baptist Academy we know and understand that children are the tools that God can use to make a difference in future generations.
Because of this, your child will not only be taught superior academics, but he will also learn on an equal basis the Godly principles that will prepare him for making the correct choices when the time arises.
It is for this reason that we have a Bible class every morning and a weekly chapel service.
Our curriculum is Bible based so that your child may know not just facts, but know the truth God's truth.
Our students' future is what is important and their future is strengthened through our rules, standards, and curriculum used at the academy.
