Welcome
If you are looking for a safe campus, small class sizes, quality academics, and robust fine arts and athletic programs all set within a Christian environment, we may be the very school you are seeking. Although you will find our website helpful, nothing compares to visiting our campus to see, hear, and feel the family-friendly atmosphere at Prince Avenue Christian School!
The list of competitive colleges and universities our students earn acceptance into, award-winning fine arts program, and multiple championship athletic teams serve to promote our excellent reputation as a high-quality college preparatory school, but a Prince Avenue education is so much more. Our commitment to teaching biblical principles provides a foundation for our students’ lives that serves them long after they leave the safe harbor of our campus. We are not only committed to preparing our students for college, but we are committed to training up the next generation of Christian families.
Here are some recent school highlights:
- Our lower school students scored 97% higher than the ACSI national average in standardized testing for all content areas.
- We are the only high school, public or private, in the greater Athens area to offer 42 hours of dual high school and college courses on campus taught by our own faculty.
- Our fine arts department has been recognized by the prestigious Shuler Awards for exceptional performances during the past three school years, placed second in the state for the GHSA One-Act Play, and was the 2021 Region Literary Champion. Our Advanced Band consistently receives superior ratings in festivals and evaluations, and many of our student performers have received individual accolades for their performances in band and performing arts events.
- Our organized athletics are offered in lower, middle, and high schools, and our varsity student-athletes have won region championships in softball, basketball, baseball, and football. Additionally, our varsity football team and varsity boys golf team each won the 2020 Private Single-A GHSA State Championship.
- Our recently introduced overnight spiritual retreat at the beginning of the school year is designed to remove distractions, strengthen interpersonal relationships, and foster spiritual growth in our high school students.
- Our high school seniors’ capstone mission trip allows students to spread Christ’s love by working with families and children in need and helping with low-income housing construction.
- In 2021, we began construction on an 18,600 square foot middle school building to provide more instructional space and are purchasing 14 acres of additional land to expand our athletic facilities
To gain a better appreciation for our school and its culture, I encourage you to contact Victoria Carter or Nan Lavender in our Admissions Department or feel free to contact me directly anytime. Come see us at Prince for a tour or have your child shadow one of our students to experience a traditional school day. I believe once on campus, you’ll see why so many families call us home!
Warm regards and in His service,
