Mount Juliet Christian Academy

ABOUT MJCA
Located fifteen minutes from Nashville Tennessee, MJCA is a private Christian school that is a ministry of First Baptist Church in Mt. Juliet, Tennessee. The church and school sit on 65 acres of land less than one mile from Interstate 40. MJCA opened its doors in 1979 with grades 1-3. An additional class was added yearly until 1989 when the first class graduated from MJCA.

Today, with approximately 580 students enrolled from preschool through the 12th grade, MJCA's mission is "to provide an atmosphere in which students can mature spiritually, academically, physically, and socially through a quality education based on Biblical truth."

These exceptional opportunities are found in the outstanding personnel-the faculty, staff, coaches, and administrators-who make a daily impact on MJCA students. Combined with fine campus facilities, an outstanding arts and humanities department, an individualized college counseling program, and a challenging academic curriculum, MJCA provides a college preparatory experience like no one else.
