Why ACCA?
heart, soul, & mind
As a classical school, ACCA’s curriculum is full of exposure to history and truth, time outdoors to enjoy creation, the language of mathematics, stories that transform the imagination, and rigorous work of which to be proud. Above all, we are committed to nurturing the hearts and minds of our students so that they may be faithful followers of Jesus Christ.
​
Learning is full of wonder and joy, and we believe the classical, Christian curriculum lends itself to embracing the way in which God made us - as people who sing, laugh and delight in all that is true, beautiful and good.

Is ACCA Right For Your Family?
our values
If you're wondering whether ACCA might be the right school for your family, take some time to explore our three core school values:
-
When was Alexandria Classical Christian Academy Founded?ACCA was founded in the summer of 2023 by Ms. Katherine Kramer due to a growing need for additional access to Classical Christian Schools in Alexandria, VA.
-
How many grades do you have?For the 2024- 2025 academic year, ACCA serves Lower School students (from Junior Kindergarten through 5th grade). In subsequent years, we will grow one grade level per academic year until we get to 8th grade.

What is the class size at ACCA?ACCA is committed to maintaining class sizes of 15 children or less.

Is ACCA affiliated with a particular church or denomination?No, ACCA is an independent and private Christian school without institutional ties to a specific church or denomination. We do subscribe to the historical creeds of faith (the Apostles Creed) and are strongly rooted in Christian teachings and the Gospel. We follow the church year with our students and encourage reverence in worship. We are housed at First Baptist Church of Alexandria and deeply grateful for their generosity in sharing their beautiful campus with us.
-
What is a Classical Christian Education?Classical Christian education is a long tradition of education that emphasizes the pursuit of truth, goodness, and beauty while cultivating a desire for wisdom and virtue within the student. This is accomplished by the reading of the great books of history and literature, the study of mathematics and creation, and the encouragement and guidance of the teachers.
