About Us

Welcome to Park Place Christian Academy.  Founded in 2000, PPCA is a ministry of Park Place Baptist Church, which strives to provide a distinctively Christian, academically rigorous education for students in grades K3-12.  PPCA offers a balanced, affordable, high-quality Christian education that meets the needs of students and parents alike.  Here at PPCA, we integrate academic excellence with a passion for Christ to develop a strong foundation for young leaders.  Our students are instructed, inspired, and encouraged to establish and cultivate a personal relationship with Jesus Christ.  Park Place Christian Academy is accredited by SACS/AdvancED and at the highest level by the Midsouth Association of Independent Schools (MAIS).

Mission Statement

Park Place Christian Academy’s mission is to partner with parents to provide their children a Christ-centered education founded on the Bible which fosters spiritual development and instills the vision and practice of Christian excellence in academics, character, and service to others.  Our faith in God is integrated throughout all of our programs and courses of study as part of our Christian worldview.  We believe as we integrate academic excellence with a passion for Christ we will develop a strong foundation of young leaders to uniquely shape the world in which we live.

What Our Families (and Others) Love About Us

“Park Place Christian Academy is such a refuge for us! We love knowing that our kids have a place to attend school that shares in our goal to teach not only academics but Biblical principles and a Christian worldview. This aspect of educating our kids gives us as parents such peace of mind as we grow and steward our children!”

“Park Place has a special place in my heart because it gave me the opportunity to do what I love (teach) with the total love and support of Christian administrators, faculty, and parents. It also affords freedom to share God’s love daily in the classroom while guiding the students in navigating the issues of today’s world!”

“PPCA is such a blessing to us. We knew we wanted our children to grow up in a Christ-centered environment and hear the gospel proclaimed through daily academics. The Lord blessed us to be able to send our children to PPCA for just that. We love PPCA and the friendships we have made!”
