What His Academy does

His Academy Christian School of Excellence is a non-profit private Christian school serving students from K5 through 12th grade, operating as a ministry of Unity of Faith Christian Church, Inc. The school is located at 5587 Redan Road in Stone Mountain, Georgia, and serves families across Dekalb, Gwinnett, and Rockdale counties. Founded on August 13, 2001 by Dr. Jake Givan, Jr., with an initial enrollment of 33 students, the school has been in continuous operation for over 22 years. The institution is led by a small team of 8 employees, with Mrs. Tanya Mack serving as Registrar handling admissions.

His Academy delivers a Christ-centered academic program built on the A Beka Book curriculum, which was developed by Pensacola Christian College and field-tested since 1985. Core technology consists of pre-recorded DVD/video lessons taught daily by master teachers from Pensacola Christian College, supplemented by on-site qualified classroom teachers who reinforce concepts, answer questions, and provide individualized support. The school maintains capped class sizes averaging no more than 8 students (compared to a local average of 23+), administers ITBS standardized testing in fall and spring, and reports that 88% of students test above the national average. It holds SACS accreditation through A Beka, enabling graduates to apply to any college or university.

The business model is subscription-based recurring tuition: $450 per student per month for K5–12th grade, plus a non-refundable $75 registration fee per new student and a $170 matriculation fee (covering two standardized tests, yearbook, records maintenance, and the A Beka curriculum). A sibling discount applies (10% for the second child, 50% for each additional child of the same legal guardian). Go-to-market is sales-led through direct parent outreach, the school's church ministry network under Unity of Faith Bible Church, and word-of-mouth within local faith communities; the school does not maintain formal digital marketing channels. The customer base consists of families seeking Christ-centered, college-preparatory education as an extension of the Christian home.

• Mount Paran Christian School: Faith-based K-12 school in Kennesaw, Georgia (Metro Atlanta), making it a regional peer to His Academy. Both compete for Christ-centered families in the greater Atlanta area using similar college-prep curricula and standardized testing programs.
• St. John Bosco Academy: Smaller faith-based K-12 school with a college-preparatory mission and small class sizes, structurally similar to His Academy in scale and operating philosophy. Comparable as a private religious school competing in a defined local market.
