Program areas at Bethel Classical Academy

In 2021, Bethel Classical Academy was established in City of Irvine, California, to provide a classical and Christian education which adheres to aProtestant, biblical worldview as articulated in our Statement of Faith. The goals of this education are to use the great works and events of WesternCivilization as fodder for developing in students an appreciation of that which is true, good, beautiful and noble; life-long habits of learning and criticalthinking; and the desire and ability to respectfully, creatively and winsomely communicate.The fundamental purpose of BCA, as a school, is to educate with excellence. We believe that truly outstanding education can never be accomplishedapart from a central recognition of God as Truth and the source of all wisdom. The wisdom of this world is foolishness with God. Corinthians 3:19. Forthis reason, all subject matter at BCA must be taught from a Biblical worldview, explicitly recognizing the centrality of God in all learning and discourse.Happy is the man who finds wisdom, and the man who gains understanding; for her proceeds are better than the profits of silver, and her gain than finegold. She is more precious than rubies, and all the things you may desire cannot compare with her. Proverbs 2:13-15. In the pursuit of knowledge andwisdom, it is our desire to equip students not only with an excellent understanding of academic subjects but also with a mature understanding of thenature of God, our relationship and responsibility to God and others, our moral responsibility for the choices we make, and an appreciation of God'screation.
