The Bible Camp operated as a mission to provide a Christian environment for children. The first graduation of pre-kindergarten students took place in 2000.
In order to become a full time school the administration worked tirelessly with the Tennessee Association of Christian Schools to meet all guidelines of the Tennessee Department of Education. Priest Lake Christian Academy opened in its current location on 3325 Anderson Road on August 2010 with preschool and kindergarten children.
The academy has grown to over 60 students in grades Pre-K through 4th grade.
The mission of Priest Lake Christian Academy is to provide an educational program of academic excellence that is biblically sound. Our program also has a mission to be Christ-centered in a spiritual, safe, and nurturing environment.
It is our obligation to give our children the opportunity to have the capacity to choose Jesus Christ.
We will teach the truth, Pro-God, Pro-Word of God, and Pro-Righteousness as defined in the bible.
We will raise up new creatures in Christ. We will keep His commandments, and abide in His love.
We will produce Christians that are able to reproduce themselves.
We will walk by faith, not by sight until the LORD returns.
