Welcome to Mississauga Christian Academy, we have been serving in the city for over 40 years as a ministry of Meadowvale Bible Baptist Church. We are proud to offer families a superior elementary school education where God and His Word are central to the curriculum. Our faculty of Ontario Certified Teachers are committed to loving and teaching each child in their care and to work with parents to train up their child in the way that they should go.
While some Christian schools offer only a Christian-inflected education, MCA was established in 1977 to provide a program that actively promotes the values and lessons of the church across all the curricular areas. It’s also unique in that it’s one of the few schools in the region that are formally affiliated with a church, Meadowvale Bible Baptist. Class sizes are small, and the annual enrollment of 140 students allows for individual instruction and a close-knit community feel within the school. The ideal student is one able to thrive in a challenging, collaborative academic environment, and is looking to grow into their faith within a community of true peers.
