Dedicated teachers

“I attended Temple Academy from kindergarten through high school graduation in 2008. I believe, to a great degree, I was prepared to complete one of the most prestigious engineering programs in the country because of the dedication of my teachers at Temple. I am grateful for the effort, time, and prayer that the faculty invested in me while I was at the Academy.”

Preparation for my future

“At Temple, our teachers worked hard to prepare us for what lay ahead. Many of the classes I took while at the Academy were as rigorous as those I later took in college, so I already had a basic understanding of subject matter and was better able to handle college-level academics.”

Grateful for influence

As alumni, my wife and I are both grateful for the influence Temple Academy has had on our lives. I have watched two brothers, three sisters-in-law, and now my own daughter grow up and graduate under the influence of the same school. The Lord truly blessed our family when He led us to Temple.

Bible-based curriculum

Shared faith

“I have the opportunity to work with outstanding students and faculty in the College of Education at Lipscomb University. I can share my passion for teaching and learning – focusing on more than academics. While at Temple, our teachers went out of their way to assist students in their learning and shared their faith with us. I will always be grateful to them and want to model their examples with my graduate students.”

Parents and friends,

The things that are so valuable to us are the same things that make Temple Academy like no other school in our area.

The commitment to biblical truth and embracing others with the love of Jesus Christ are not mutually exclusive. To the contrary, Christ commands us to “speak the truth in love.” That is what you will find at Temple Academy. This approach enables us to educate the whole child – physically, mentally, and spiritually. It truly establishes a foundation for life. In fact, it’s the only foundation upon which a Christ-following life can be built.

Your child’s education ought to be balanced. By that, we mean you should not be forced to choose between a school that offers an outstanding, Scripture-rooted education and a school that fields multiple athletic teams, various fine arts offerings, and an assortment of extracurriculars. The reason Temple Academy offers a balanced Christian educational experience is because we are convinced that God uses every experience and every person in a child’s environment to shape them into the young adult He desires them to be on their graduation day.

Peer relationships, the influence of godly faculty, a challenging curriculum, and spiritual growth all promote the most important gifts you can give your child: a strong start to life, an exceptional education, and a desire to know, love, and serve the true and living God.

We hope to meet you and your family soon. Schedule a personal tour so that you can see for yourself what Temple Academy is all about.

Sincerely,

Mike Fox
Head of School
