Every student is a precious life, and every day is an opportunity to be more like Jesus
vision
Although we are currently offering only Daycare and PRE-K service. The goal is to have a fully capable K-12 program over the next 6 years, with the same focus that we have today! In order to make this vision reality, we desire to partner with Christ believing parents who are looking to make Jesus the most invaluable component of our children’s lives.
This partnership requires Godly vision, intentional community effort, and cheerful resources. Please, consider partnering with us for your child’s future today!

As both the head of the school and a proud mother of two sons who have been shaped by Christian education from their earliest years, I understand firsthand how critical the right school environment is for a child’s development spiritually, academically, and personally.
Effingham Christian Academy was truly an answered prayer. God placed a strong desire in our hearts to establish a private Christian school that would meet a deep need in our community. That vision became a reality in 2023, and since then, we have watched God’s faithfulness unfold in powerful ways.
At ECA, we blend academic excellence with a Christ-centered philosophy of education. Our mission is not just to teach minds, but to shape hearts for the Kingdom. Every day, we witness our students growing in knowledge, faith, and character and it fills me with immense joy and confidence in the work we’re doing here.
Whether you are discovering ECA for the first time or prayerfully considering it as the next step in your child’s journey, I invite you to experience the warmth of our school family. Our dedicated faculty and staff are committed to partnering with you in nurturing children who love God, love learning, and love others.
We welcome you to visit our campus and see firsthand what makes ECA a place where faith and learning come alive together. I look forward to walking this journey with you as we shape futures rooted in truth, character, and God’s purpose.
With blessings,

It is with great joy and deep gratitude that I welcome you to our school community. As the CEO of ECA, I am honored to be part of a school that was born out of prayer, built on faith, and dedicated to raising the next generation of leaders who will walk boldly in truth, wisdom, and the love of Christ.
At Effingham Christian Academy, we believe that education is far more than academics it is a calling. Every moment your child spends in the classroom, on the playground, or in chapel is a moment of shaping, forming, and influencing their hearts and minds for eternity. That’s why we are committed to providing an environment where children not only grow in knowledge, but also in character, purpose, and spiritual maturity.
We are on a mission to cultivate students who reflect the heart of Jesus students who are academically strong, spiritually grounded, and equipped to make a difference in the world. This mission drives everything we do, from the curriculum we teach to the culture we create.
Our dedicated faculty and staff partner with families to ensure that each child is known, loved, and encouraged to become all that God created them to be. We believe in excellence, not only in education but in character, service, and faith.
If you are seeking a Christ-centered, academically rigorous, and spiritually nurturing environment for your child, I invite you to visit our campus, meet our passionate educators, and experience the heart of ECA for yourself.
We would be honored to walk alongside your family on this journey.
In Christ,
Joshua Peavy
