Early Childhood Education (Infant-K5)
Bob Jones Academy’s early childhood education programs strive to provide Christ-centered care in a clean, safe and stimulating environment and to assist parents in the nurturing of their child’s physical, emotional and spiritual development.
Teaching God’s Word is an essential part in accomplishing this goal. Through teaching Bible stories, songs and verses in the classroom, we seek to lay a solid biblical foundation that emphasizes the necessity of a personal faith in Christ for both salvation and Christian living.

Elementary Education (Grades 1-5)
BJA wants your child to reach his or her full potential spiritually, socially, physically and academically. Our program in grades 1 through 5 offers first-class academics and daily Bible instruction, with a particular focus on character development.
Dedicated to biblical character development
Our students develop a sense of school community and learn principles of citizenship, including responsibility, respect for others, love of country and the importance of the individual.
BJA students have many opportunities to put these principles into action. At Thanksgiving, elementary-age students collect food for needy families in the Greenville area. At Christmas, they learn to serve other children through special projects such as giving toys, books and supplies to Christian schools and children’s centers.
