Welcome!
Melissa Barrett, Head of School
At Chapelgate Christian Academy, our mission is to prepare students to hear God’s voice so that they may determine His will for their lives (1 Samuel 3:1-10). We believe this begins in community, through relationships that reflect Christ’s love and truth. Our most important core value is building Christ-centered relationships, where students, teachers, and families grow together in faith, grace, and mutual encouragement.
At Chapelgate, we have a rigorous college-preparatory curriculum with high educational standards. Our students gain a strong academic foundation that nurtures critical thinking and problem-solving. Every subject is taught through a Christian worldview, grounding knowledge in biblical truth and helping students see God’s purpose in all learning.
Each teacher serves as a mentor—not only through instruction but also through example, prayer, and authentic relationship. In every classroom and interaction, we seek to create an environment where Christ is known and His presence shapes hearts and minds. Our goal is to challenge students to grow in knowledge, community, and faith, becoming well-equipped for college, life, and faithful service to God.
Beyond academics, Chapelgate students are artists, athletes, volunteers, musicians, readers, engineers, missionaries, and leaders. Our athletics programs and Fine Arts Department (featuring band, orchestra, choir, studio art, dance, technology, photography, and theatre) invite students to discover, develop, and use their God-given gifts in ways that honor Him.
The K–12 years are formative and deeply influential. The privilege of being entrusted with your child’s education is a privilege and responsibility we do not take lightly. We desire to partner with parents to nurture not only strong minds but also strong hearts, anchored in Christ and guided by godly character.
I invite you to contact our Admissions Office to learn more, schedule a private tour, or attend an Open House. To know our students, faculty, and staff is to know Chapelgate, and we'd love an opportunity to meet you!
