Arnold Christian Academy is
a non-denominational Christian school with a gifted teaching staff committed to creating a loving, encouraging, Christ-centered learning environment for those students the Lord graciously places in their care.
Providing an affordable Christian education without sacrificing academic excellence.
Arnold Christian Academy offers small class sizes
allowing students to receive individualized instruction
in conjunction with group lessons. Creative and fun
teaching tools are incorporated into the curriculum to ensure all learning styles are targeted to maximize
student competencies. Students receive a daily break
and recess time to help energize their brains
while giving them time to just be kids. Take a look
at the slides below to see school days at ACA.
We strive to advance each child's understanding of God's word to help them appreciate the blessing of their salvation, the value of walking in faith and the transforming power that leads them to Christ-likeness. This while using a variety of teaching methods to elevate educational proficiencies so every child remains challenged at their level of intellectual giftedness.
Arnold Christian Academy exists to serve the children of families who are looking for expressly Christian education and who are themselves expressly Christian in their commitment and beliefs. At least one parent must be a Christian actively involved in a church supporting a Christ-centered lifestyle.

"Arnold Christian Academy has made such a positive impact not just on my children, but for our entire family. I have never seen such a group of dedicated teachers, who truly are there as a ministry for the Lord. They live out their faith for my children to witness and have helped them to grow in their faith while academically learning. The teachers also use creative means to make learning fun and at an early age, have taught them tools they will use the rest of their lives. ACA is like an extended family to us and I can't imagine my children attending school anywhere else!" Denise Colebrook
"Arnold Christian Academy was the right choice when our son entered middle school and the benefits of that choice have followed him into college where he is excelling in his field. At ACA he learned self-discipline and project management techniques, excellent math and writing skills, and key Bible scriptures that created a base for him to continue his walk with the Lord. ACAs teachers can quickly diagnose any academic needs and have the authority and caring ability to create a plan to meet those needs with quantitative results. Most importantly, the parent is kept informed along the way and plans can be easily fine-tuned so that the child is working at his best ability. Arnold Christian Academy is a small school that can make a big impact in your childs academic, social, and Christian life. It was the right choice for us and can be for you and your child, too!" Ann Fiehn
" ACA set the stage for my success in high school.
This year I am taking four honors classes: Biology,
US History, English and Geometry as well as Spanish ll. The emphasis ACA placed on mastering study skills and understanding how I learn has made it possible for me to take advantage of the best classes available at Chespeake High School. But, even more than the academic preparation, I learned why I am here...to worship God in all that I do. I thank God for giving me this school." Abbi Colebrook , ACA Class of 2009.
"The academic rigor of Arnold Christian Academy was the first step in my preparation for the United States Air Force Academy and a career in the United States Air Force. I would not be the same today without ACA." 2nd Lieutenant Timothy Hicks, USAF Academy, Class of 09'.
