Columbia Academy (CA) is a private, college preparatory, co-educational, Christian school for students in grades Pre-K-12 located in Columbia, Tennessee.[2]
CA was founded in 1905 as Columbia Military Academy (CMA) on the campus of a closed U.S. Army arsenal.[3] The school lasted until 1979 when it was turned over to a local Christian group that reorganized the school as a private Christian day school, removing all military aspects.[1]
