The private, nondenominational Bayshore Christian School has served Tampa Bay since 1971, teaching children from as young as 2 years old up to high school seniors.
With a motto of “We are Bayshore: Scholars, Leaders, Faith Warriors,” the school molds each of these aspects in their pupils.
Scholastically, education starts with essential core knowledge like reading, writing, math and social studies. As students progress, their academic lives become more challenging. Eighth graders can enroll in up to four high school classes, and high schoolers can take Advanced Placement courses and dual enroll in the local community college.
Students hone their leadership skills through involvement in such activities as student government, interest clubs and honor societies, and serving as a manager for the school’s annual theatrical productions.
Bayshore creates Faith Warriors in more ways than one. It’s the nickname for the school’s middle and high school athletic teams, which compete in several sports, from flag football to golf. Spiritually, students in every grade receive daily Bible instruction, go on mission trips and attend weekly chapel services.
As a result, Bayshore Christian Academy turns out graduates who are prepared to make a positive impact on the world!

BCS gave me a fresh start after a difficult time in my high school career. The teachers are so compassionate towards every one of their students, and extremely passionate about the subject(s) they teach. The diversity among the students adds compelling new flavors to the campus life. The BCS faculty and mission successfully cultivate a strong drive to learn new things.

All my children have either graduated from or are currently attending BCS. A lot of schools have strong academics or a variety of sports programs, but what makes this school stand out is the environment.

Bayshore has been an amazing school for my children especially my middle daughter. My children came from public school and instead of getting them a 529 and a IEP I decided to try Bayshore. Best decision that was made for my children. They care for my child’s spiritual, mental and emotional needs. A...
