Overview
Twin Tiers Christian Academy is proud of its academic credentials, and strives to provide our students with the best educational experience available while not compromising the Biblical world view.
Our Christian school began operation in 1976 as the Twin Tiers Baptist High School, ministering to students in grades 7 to 12.
We are located in the "Finger Lakes" region of New York, near Elmira and Horseheads, just a few miles off of I-86.
As of July 2004, our school, now known as Twin Tiers Christian Academy, has been under the ministry of the Breesport Baptist Church.
Notre Dame High School, a ministry of the Sisters of Mercy, seeks to prepare students for college by providing a challenging academic environment that stimulates students intellectually, physically and spiritually, in a community that respects a diversity of backgrounds and perspectives, thus inspiring life-long learners, critical thinkers, and compassionate, responsible citizens of the world.
