Parent Testimonials
“My daughter has thrived at Berkeley Christian Academy. The teachers are incredibly supportive and patient, focusing on early literacy, social skills, and essential skills to prepare kids for elementary school. BCA fosters a nurturing environment based on Christian values, giving my child a solid foundation for following Jesus. With a friendly staff and small class sizes, Berkeley Christian has been a fantastic experience for my child.”
“ My children ages 7, 5, and 3 all begin attending BCA at the ages of 16 months. All 3 of my children can read, write, spell but most importantly they know who God is. It’s beautiful when you find an Academy that has the same beliefs as you and ensures the safety of your children at all times . Most importantly my children are all excited about learning and are respectful and it’s been embedded in them since they were 16 months. ”
“Recently BCA incorporated musical instruments into their lesson plans and it goes to show you that BCA is constantly involving. Their summer enrichment program has grown over the years and I cannot be more thrilled to see what’s next”
