Conveniently located next to the Athens Sportsplex and Recreation Center, Athens Bible School has provided its students with an atmosphere based on quality education and Christian studies since 1943. At Athens Bible School, the core belief focuses on developing each student's spiritual, mental, physical and social health. There are more than 250 children enrolled in grades K-12.

I attended for 14 years, from preschool through 12th grade. It's a small, close-knit community. Great if you're conservative Christian, not if you aren't. Not diverse at all.

ABS has been a great school for me for the past 13 years of my life. It is hard to find a place where your teachers truly care about you outside of the classroom and I see that everyday at school. The academic classes are challenging but the teachers help us in every way they can to help us understand the material. Even though it is a small school, I have lots of opportunities presented to me; not only be more involved with my school but also with my community. I don't think I could have attended a school where I would have had such a great experience as I have during my days at ABS

We have two girls at ABS now. Sending them to ABS has been a great blessing to us. At ABS they receive the spiritual training that isn't available anywhere else in North Alabama. They start each day with Chapel worshiping God. Bible Class each day provide instruction and teach them God's word. The t...
