Ridge Christian Academy maintains a strong reputation around the community and continues to serve students with respect and individuality since opening its doors in 1991. Located on the northwest side of the Goose Creek neighborhood, this private school serves students from pre-K to 12th grade. Ridge Christian Academy offers an individualized education to students that is perfect for hands-on learning and peer-leadership opportunities.
Special programs like the Fall Festival, annual book fair, 100th day of school celebration and prom keep students excited and connected with the community. Parents are encouraged to volunteer and often help fund and organize these fun events. Students from fifth to 12th grade often participate in sports like volleyball, basketball, cross country and track or attend the games to support their fellow Paladins.
With a blend of curriculum strategies and exploratory courses like foreign languages, physical education, and art, students receive a quality education from highly dedicated and qualified teachers. More than half of the graduating seniors attend a four-year college or technical school, while others enter the workforce or attend a trade school.
Between the special programs, sports opportunities and intimate class sizes, it is easy to see why students are proud to be a Paladin at Ridge Christian Academy.

Safe Christian school. I'm a freshman and I enjoy most of my teachers and the environment is working in. Students aren't bad and drama isn't bad. Has a nice perspective on God and the Christian life.
