A Christ-centered community where every student is seen, known & loved.
Is your child growing on a foundation you trust?
As a parent, you’re deciding on the kind of daily influence that will nurture your child’s heart and mind. That’s why choosing the right community matters. At Whitefield Academy, students are shaped in an environment that helps them pursue their God-given potential.
With a caring community, Whitefield students engage in college-prep academics rooted in a Christian worldview, then step into extracurriculars where they can contribute and connect. Over time, they become the kind of leaders our vision calls for — ready to impact the world through Biblical thought and action.
It’s a foundation that families can trust.

Why Whitefield
Our vision is to see every student know and follow Jesus. From Preschool through 12th grade, we provide a Christ-centered, Biblically based education marked by academic excellence and spiritual maturity. Learn more about why parents are partnering with Whitefield.

There’s no better way to experience the heart of Whitefield than by hearing directly from the families who are part of our community. Here’s what The Lewis Family shared:
“We love that Whitefield has been a true home for Sydney and Jackson since they were in the 18-month-old preschool classes, offering an environment where they are both deeply loved and academically challenged. Every sacrifice is worth it knowing that faithful teachers daily reinforce the same Godly principles and values we cherish at home. Prospective families should visit to witness this unique partnership firsthand, where the school is genuinely committed to the long-term academic, athletic, and spiritual growth of every student.”
If you’re looking for a school where your child will be seen, known, and loved, we would love to have you come visit us!

We’re excited to welcome Colton Talley as our new Head HS Boys Basketball Coach!
Talley has been coaching at Whitefield for the past 2.5 years and has been around the game of basketball his entire life including playing at a very high level. He played four years of collegiate basketball at Lindsey Wilson College, and is passionate about helping young athletes grow both on and off the court.
Reflecting on his time as a student athlete, Colton shared:
“My own personal journey as a student athlete prepared me for the balance of being a student and an athlete. Work hard and the rewards will be given. If you mess up, that’s okay. Figure out the mistake and how you bounce back from it. Using that mentality is the reason why I have been able to coach and make an impression.”
What excites you most about this new role?
“What excites me about leading Whitefield Boys Basketball is training young athletes but also, leading them to be Godly men.”
Welcome, Coach Talley! We can’t wait to see the impact you’ll make on and off the court.
