Yes, SMCA is a ministry of Merrimack Valley Baptist Church.
SMCA maintains a high level of academic expectations. Our students consistently score well above the national, local, and Stanford Achievement Tests standards. Students entering from others schools may experience a period of academic transition. We believe, however, that each student should strive to reach the highest level of academic achievement possible according to the talents and abilities with which God has gifted him/her.

Yes. Students are required to wear uniforms purchased through Lands End. A guide of our approved uniforms may be picked up in the office.
Discipline is based upon and guided by the absolute principles of Scripture and the institutional distinctives of our school. Our philosophy dictates that there exists a relationship of trust between the home and the school in all matters, including the discipline of students. Scripture clearly indicates that parents are established by God as the authority over their children and we believe that this authority may be delegated to other leaders in the children's lives. The most important goal and aim of discipline is to have the students understand and submit to the authority and love of God in their lives. We will support the discipline of your home and expect the same from you.
Our Lunch Coordinator contracts with local vendors to provide hot lunches for the school. Hot lunches are ordered online via ParentsWeb a week in advance and are not included in tuition costs. Students are welcome to bring their own lunches as well.
No, the school does not currently provide services to our students in Massachusetts. However, there are carpooling opportunities for these families. Please contact the school office for more details.
