Answer The Call
Our goal as an academy is to train children in the Bible, in academics, and in fitness. We encourage our students to reach for a higher goal and push past what they are comfortable doing. We want to raise a generation to be firm in their relationships with God and to shine a light into the world. A light of Hope, a light of Knowledge, and the light of Jesus.

The Crystal At A Glance
Crystal Academy is a Christian academy dedicated to bringing life to our students and training them to be the light of the world. Our staff are entirely made up of Christians who share our love for the children and the academy. Crystal academy was founded in 1995 to create a place for students to grow in faith, education, and fitness. Crystal academy isn't just a private school, but a community. Any new students are welcomed with love. You will never be alone at the Crystal, even if you try.
Our Foundation
When we first started the academy, we didn't have much money. Only enough for a little building on a St. Catharine's Island. We originally started as a school for middle school children. We wanted a place where children could discover their natural talents and abilities and grow in them. When we started, we made sure that we founded the academy on the Word of God and the truth that Jesus is the great healer, not us. However, we also wanted an academy that not only shines a light on your abilities, but also trains you to become the best you can be. To train students so they can go on to top colleges in the nation.
Our Goal
Our goal for the students is to raise them in a way that brings the most glory to God. We want our students to grow in spirit, their relationship with Christ, and to grow physically, in education and in fitness. We are striving, and succeeding, in raising generations of students that are fine tuned in their unique gifts and use every part of them to serve God and others throughout their life.
Our Method
When we started, we had one Method which we still use today. Everything we teach revolves around the Bible. We believe that success and passion is found in Jesus and without God, life... is meaningless. Since God created the world, when we take Him out of studying, the world doesn't make much sense. We teach that since God created everyone just the way He wanted, No-one is imperfect. God made you for a purpose, and he created you with abilities, and even disabilities, to accomplish your goal on earth. So if God made everyone different, yet perfect, we can learn to love them as they are. God is always the center of our learning and, until He comes back, He will always be.
Our Facilitators
Our Faculty
Our facilitators are a couple who started this school in 1995. They make sure the school is running smoothly and that teachers are treating and grading the students fairly. Most of all, though, they both love the Lord, and because of their love for Him, their love pours out to the students. "They're the best," says Malisa, a 4th grader in Crystal Academy. "They always love you no matter what you do."
Crystal academy has an amazing staff who share a passion for spreading a light in a darkened world. They love to help the students and the staff do everything they can to bring the academy together. The staff run all the different parts of the academy and all love the one true Lord.
