The Sandiford Family Story: A Family Spotlight

When Tabitha Sandiford began searching for the right school for her children, she wasn’t simply looking for academics. She was looking for a place where her children would be known, supported, and grounded in faith. After hearing friends recommend BG Christian Academy—especially for its attentiveness to special education needs—she felt God leading her family here.

Now, just months later, she sees the fruit of that decision every day. Here's their family spotlight.

What first drew Tabitha in was the promise of Christian education within a faith-filled community. What she has discovered is something even deeper.

If she had to describe BG Christian in one word, it would be Caring.

“Because the teachers and staff are so lovingly invested in the students here, as individuals,” she explains.

That loving investment has made all the difference. In just their first year, her daughter’s grades have greatly improved. Her son is also growing academically, building confidence as he learns. But while academic progress has been exciting to witness, Tabitha is clear about what matters most: “Most importantly, they are growing spiritually!”

At BG Christian Academy, education goes beyond textbooks and tests. It shapes hearts. Through daily biblical integration, Christ-centered teaching, and intentional discipleship, students are learning who they are in Christ while developing the skills they need to succeed.

For the Sandiford family, this balance is exactly what they hoped for. The school is preparing their children “both spiritually and academically in the best ways possible.” They are being equipped not only for the next grade level, but for the next season of life — grounded in truth, strengthened in character, and growing in wisdom.

Though this is only their first year, the impact already feels lasting.

When asked what she would tell another parent considering BG Christian Academy, Tabitha’s advice is simple:

“Take a tour and see the community for yourself!”

Because when families walk through our doors, they don’t just see classrooms. They see teachers who care deeply. They see students encouraged to grow. They see a community united in faith.

For the Sandiford family, BG Christian Academy is more than a school. It is a partner in raising children who are thriving academically and flourishing spiritually.

And this is just the beginning.
