We choose SA because…

  • "Starkville academy is a special place that i've had the opportunity to attend for the past 14 years. i remember being a little girl and experiencing the excitement when i attended various sa events. i will forever look up to the students and teachers who impacted me at a young age, and i hope to be an example of what it looks like to be involved and lead positively. SA has a place for everyone to get involved and be your best self. From band, to clubs, to sports teams, there are many opportunities to work together towards a common goal and reach your god given potential. don't be afraid to try something new. you never know what you may learn about yourself or what new friends you might make.

    -Sara Stokes McReynolds, Student Body President

  • "When I think back on my time at Starkville Academy, I am thankful for the numerous teachers, coaches, staff, and administrators who invested in me academically and athletically. I am confident that my experiences at Starkville Academy prepared me for the challenges that awaited me at the United States Naval Academy."

    -MIDN Tyler Highfield, USN
    Starkville Academy Class of 2022

  • "Our family chose SA for our daughters for a variety of reasons, and we have been exceedingly pleased with our experience. The smaller size of SA offers a personal and nurturing environment. With everything located on one campus, there is a strong sense of community that fosters lasting relationships. SA has provided our daughters with opportunities to explore their interests and develop as leaders - both in and out of the classroom. We love the school’s emphasis and commitment to cultivating the “volunteer spirit” of serving others. The academic rigor and dedication of the teachers and counselors has challenged and guided our daughters as they prepare for college and beyond. SA offers a firm foundation for both academic and personal growth in a safe, Christian environment."

    -Kevin Randall, SA Parent

  • "I chose to teach at Starkville Academy because of the strong values and high standards the school upholds for its students, staff, and faculty. I began working at SA 13 years ago, and from the very start, I knew this was where I wanted my own children to grow and learn. The compassion, dedication, and meaningful relationships formed between students and teachers create a truly unique and nurturing environment. That sense of community and shared purpose is what makes SA a special place and why I am proud to be a Volunteer."

    -Rebecca Schilling, SA Parent, 6th Grade Teacher, & Varsity Cheer Coach

  • "I have taught/coached for 35 years. SA is a great place to teach and coach. It was one of the best decisions of life to come work here and continue giving back to our community. SA is a Christian environment that nourishes our students and faculty. We are one big happy family."
