Extracurricular
Field Trips While many schools do not take field trips anymore, Bill Rice Christian Academy takes at least two each year. In the fall, each class takes its own trip, and in the spring, the entire student body takes a trip. Some years an “Others Trip” is taken in which we do something for others who cannot give back to us (children’s home, nursing home, etc.). Field trips are an excellent way to inspire learning outside the classroom.
Fine Arts Competition Bill Rice Christian Academy is a member of the Tennessee Association of Christian Schools (TACS). Each year TACS holds a fine arts competition in which all our 4th-6th graders are encouraged to compete with other Christian school students in the areas of Bible, music, art, speech, and academics. BRCA has won first place in Bible quizzing three out of the last four years.
Special Days Every month brings a “Special Day” at Bill Rice Christian Academy. Everything from Western Day to Hawaiian Day to Valentine’s Day – Special Days bring extra life to our school.
Elementary Retreat An overnight retreat is taken at the beginning of the year for all our 3rd-6th graders to help us kick off the school year right. We take this retreat right here at the Ranch and are joined by over a hundred other Christian elementary students from Tennessee and Alabama.
