School Notes

Battle Creek Academy is a team of educational professionals dedicated to providing quality Christian education and the transmission of our Adventist values and culture to students of our community.
Our Academy is motivated by the positive values coming from a trust relationship with God, service to others, and cultivation of a desire to learn.Our values are centered in Christ and reveal themselves as students grow into their potential, developing an effective ministry in the family, the church, and the community.
We prize the principles of integrity, unconditional acceptance, stewardship, and fiscal stability, and we seek to offer a curriculum that challenges students to own their faith.We serve our students, their families, the Adventist churches that sponsor us and the wider community in which we live.
We serve by continuing a century-long tradition of providing Christ-centered education rich in the revelation of God`s grace, and by emphasizing the integrated development of the whole person.
We seek to offer a safe campus with a nurturing staff that models Adventist beliefs.We are intentional about developing servant-leaders who build the community and who are ambassadors for the Lord.
We seek partnership with the homes and churches of our students in preparing young people for their eternal home.

Our Philosophy:- Battle Creek Academy is operated by the Seventh-day Adventist Church to provide a spiritually oriented education for children. A belief in the existence of the Creator God is fundamental in the philosophy of Seventh-day Adventist schools. We respect His divine authority and recognize His intervention in human affairs. We believe that true education develops the spiritual, mental, and physical powers of each student; preparing them for the joy of service in this life and for the higher joy of service in the life to come. To achieve this goal, we encourage each student to:
develop a personal relationship with God and his fellow men as stated in Matthew 2:37-39
master the basic academic skills
value labor, physical and mental, as the blessing God intended
cultivate physical fitness, mental ability, and moral purity as the blessing God intended. Battle Creek Academy is operated in harmony with the guidance and direction of the Office of Education, North American Division of the Seventh-day Adventist Church.
