And Jesus increased in wisdom and stature, and in favor with God and man.

Luke 2:52

"Arlington is simply a great place to grow up – physically, spiritually, academically and socially."

Principal's Message

The Psalmist acknowledged that “the heavens declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim the work of his hands” (Psalm 19:1). The universe and everything in creation is a challenge of discovery for humans. At Arlington Christian School, we are excited about this journey of learning, nurturing and maturing.

In 1959, as Arlington was being born, the school’s first headmaster, Commander Owens, used Luke 2:52 to capture the mission for the school. Now, 46 years later, that same whole-person mission continues - helping children grow as Jesus in wisdom and stature and in favor with God and man. ACS is serious about providing the safe, quality academic and extra-curricular environment required to equip children to mature to choose to love God and to choose to spend their lives serving others.

Led by a dedicated and talented faculty, Arlington has been accredited for nearly 30 years by the prestigious Southern Association of Colleges and Schools and with quality by the Georgia Accrediting Commission. With 40% of our faculty holding masters degrees or higher and with an average teaching experience of more than 13 years, the teachers at ACS are committed to close, caring relationships with the students, recognizing the responsibility of Jesus’ observation that “a student is not above his teacher; everyone who is fully trained will be like his teacher” (Luke 6:40).

As an interscholastic member of the Georgia Independent School Association, Arlington students benefit from a well-rounded and balanced nurturing experience through a full range of athletic and literary competitions. Arlington is simply a great place to grow up – physically, spiritually, academically and socially. It has been said that “a school is four walls with the future inside.” ACS is a school family providing children with the foundational and college preparatory skills to explore their future.

Come, grow with us.
