Who is Collegedale Academy?
Collegedale Academy is a premier, private, co-educational Seventh-day Adventist Christian school for Early Childhood Education through 12th grade. Our campus is located in the heart of Collegedale, Tennessee, and neighbors with Southern Adventist University.
A constant focus on providing a strong Seventh-day Adventist Education
Achievement in spiritual, intellectual, emotional, and mental readiness for life after school
Christ-centered servant leadership role in our global community and church
A Message from Our Head of Schools
Each year, more than 875 young people are welcomed to Collegedale Academy (CA) by our dedicated team of over 100 teachers, chaplains, coaches, and support staff. We are a deeply Christian school with a mission to prepare children to become responsible adults who contribute to the world through the unique talents God has gifted them.
Every day, I am reminded that CA is not our school but God’s. He works through our staff to open minds and plant seeds in hearts. He works through our students to share compassion and love with one another and the world around them. Miracles are common on our campus because God is invited into everything we do.
I am honored to be a part of this youth ministry and warmly invite you to visit our campus to see how God is leading Collegedale Academy.
Yours in Christ’s service,
Brent Baldwin
