Academics

Horizon Christian Academy is fully accredited through the Association of Christian Schools International (ACSI), Georgia Independent School Association (GISA) and Cognia (the same organization that provides accreditation to public schools), ensuring that all credits are accepted in college programs.

We provide a robust offering of academics across all grades including Dual Enrollment classes and Advanced Placement classes, both of which allow a student to earn college credit hours while they are attending high school.


Our curriculum uses the Georgia Standards of Excellence as an entry point and in many areas exceeds the Georgia Standards. All of our teachers are certified through the Association of Christian Schools International (ACSI), which requires extensive coursework in biblical integration and Christ-centered education in addition to their educational requirements.


Students in grades K – 8 take one national achievement test each year. Currently we use the Iowa Test of Basic Skills (ITBS). Every other year, beginning in 1st grade, our students take the CogAT (Cognitive Abilities Test), which provides insight into a child’s learning potential.
