ABOUT
Christian Academy of Harlem was founded with the belief that faith and academic excellence should work hand in hand. As we prepare to welcome our founding class in Fall 2027, we are building a school grounded in biblical truth, disciplined structure, and meaningful partnership with families.
The following sections outline the foundation of our
vision, mission, and values.
FOUNDER's Welcome
Welcome to Christian Academy of Harlem.
CAH was founded with a clear vision: to provide a Christ-centered education rooted in Faith, Excellence, and Purpose. We believe every child is uniquely created by God and deserves an environment that challenges their mind, strengthens their character, and nurtures their faith.
Choosing a school is one of the most important decisions a family can make. At CAH, we are committed to creating a safe, structured, and academically rigorous community where students are known, supported, and prepared to lead with integrity.
It is an honor to partner with you as one of our CAH families.
With gratitude,
Mrs. Brandy Pendergrass-Lewis
Founder & President
