Spencerville Adventist Academy

Spencerville Adventist Academy describes its approach as “whole person” education—developing students’ body, mind, and spirit through a distinctly Seventh-day Adventist Christian framework, with teachers seeking to emulate Jesus and nurture students’ spiritual growth. Academics are presented as faith-integrated (Bible-centered Adventist worldview) and paired with strong personal support (individual attention and a stated ~25:1 student–teacher ratio). The school emphasizes preparing students for a life of service—through co-curricular opportunities (arts/athletics) and intentional service experiences—so students are equipped for “usefulness in this life” and beyond.

SAA asks families to apply through its online application portal (FACTS/RenWeb): create an account, start a new student application, submit it, and track status online. (spencervilleacademy.org) Per the SAA Handbook, once the online application and required documentation are complete, the Admissions Committee reviews the file and the Registrar sends a status-notification letter; families then create a FACTS account, submit the enrollment packet (with registration fee), and finalize a tuition/payment agreement before the student may attend class. (spencervilleacademy.org) Required materials include a completed application, most recent report card, two satisfactory recommendations, a current signed physical exam, immunization records, and (for PreK–1) lead test certificate and birth certificate; IEP/504 and custody documents are required if applicable, and the school may request an interview and/or testing. (spencervilleacademy.org) Key timing notes include age cutoffs by September 1 (age 4 for PreK, 5 for kindergarten, 6 for first grade), January pre-registration for current students to hold seats before registration opens to the public, and that late enrollment is not available after the first two weeks of a semester. (spencervilleacademy.org) The handbook/website do not describe a formal waitlist process or detailed priority categories beyond prioritizing currently enrolled students’ seat retention through January pre-registration; the Apply page also states they are accepting applications for the 2026–2027 school year.
