My. Bethel Christian Academy is truly incredible. The teachers, staff and students there are the most wonderful community. My daughter is known by name, loved and prayed for daily. She has blossomed under the attention of her teachers in the small learning classes. She is challenged in the best way academically and has so much self-confidence in her ability to succeed and accomplish her goals. The families there are wonderful, so warm and welcoming. It is such a special place, I would recommend it to anyone.

Mt. Bethel Christian Academy was a wonderfully nurturing environment for my children to grow up in and become the best version of themselves. They were supported and encouraged academically, emotionally, physically, and spiritually by the dedicated faculty from kindergarten through graduation. As an alumni parent, I have had the joy of watching them thrive in college after being fully prepared by MBCA. They are proud to call MBCA their alma mater.
