Berean Baptist Academy is one of the very few schools- public, private, or Christian- in the state of North Carolina that has the capability of allowing foreign studnts to enter the USA on a student visa. We are registered with SEVIS, the government agency that investigates each potential foreign student and gives them clearance to study here. We currently have 4 students attending BBA through this program- a 5th grader, two 7th graders, and a freshman in high school- all from South Korea. Many students come here and audit classes- attending classes for no credit- because their English communication skills are not to the level necessary for actually taking part in all of the testing and homework that their American classmates are able to accomplish. Several foreign students over the years have been able to attend the Academy for credit and have excelled greatly in their studies. This is a wonderful opportunity for foreign students to come to the USA and learn about our language and customs.

January 03, 2008
It is hard to believe that half of the school year is over. It has been an exciting and profitable year.
The future only holds much more excitement with the anticipation of the new preschool center opening at any time. We are ready and now wait on appointments from the state. Please pray that all will go well in the 3 step visit.
We also anticipate the arrival of our new elementary playground equipment. Two balance beams, a tarantula climber, a personalized trash can and bench are all due to arrive any day now.
Sketches have been drawn for the elementary media center. This new center will come soon after the preschool relocates.
April 8, 2008 is a special evening for all BBA parents. It is the night of our spring parent meeting in which much information is given in regard to the new school year. Our fifth grade students will be highlighted and will present a special program showing academic excellence, character training, spiritual growth, and much fun. In about nine weeks from that event, these students will commence to junior high. You will want to be a part of their special night.
