About Us
Pro Christo et Republica | "For Christ and the Republic"
Here at Southern Academy, a private Pre-K3 to 12th-grade institution, we have always committed ourselves to two principles — academic excellence and involvement. We are passionate about teaching and providing the tools that will nurture the growth and enhance the total development of each child mentally, physically, and socially. By maintaining an optimistic and safe environment, Southern offers outstanding academic preparation and opportunities to encourage each student to reach his or her full potential.
Accreditation & Academic Excellence
Southern is accredited by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools (SACS) and is a member of the Alabama Independent School Association (AISA). Southern also participates in the Chairman and the President's award presented by the AISA each year. These two awards represent the pursuit of athletic and academic excellence. Southern has also been named an AISA "Blue Ribbon School," which exemplifies excellence in teaching, student performance, school life, and school and community interactions.
Mission
to encourage individual development in our students by inspiring them to learn and by offering them many growth-promoting opportunities. We expect and promote moral responsibility and strive to develop strength of character within a respectful school community. Our goal is to foster a lifelong passion for learning, understanding, and service in an ever-changing world.
We hope you will make plans to visit our campus and see Southern firsthand.
