Barrington Christian Academy

Barrington Christian Academy (BCA) is private Christian school in Barrington, Rhode Island, United States. The school started in the 1979–1980 school year by the neighboring Barrington Baptist Church and was made into an elementary and middle school containing grades K-8. From 1984–1986, the school incorporated a high school. Due to budget issues, the high school was discontinued and the school was left with grades K-8. At the beginning of the 2005 school year, the BCA board began to discuss the possibility of re-establishing the high school. The following year, a freshman class of eleven students enrolled.

Presently, the high school has been established for over 8 years. During the 2007–2008 school year, the building underwent major construction to add an addition to be used primarily for the high school classes and to provide enhanced teacher workspaces and a counseling office. The addition contains four classrooms, a science lab, a conference room, a music room, and a new library to be enjoyed by the entire school.

The Barrington Christian Academy is accredited by the Association of Christian Schools International (ACSI) and the New England Association of Schools & Colleges. During 2007, BCA also gained permission to receive I20's from foreign students.
