Mt. Bethel Christian Academy in Cobb County plans to open a new campus in August with a founding class of ninth graders.

The upper school campus covers 33 acres including recreational facilities, a baseball field, a sports practice field, a fitness center, tennis courts, a pool and more than 33,000 square feet of classroom, administration and dining space.

The school currently instructs 500 students from kindergarten through eighth grade, and the addition of a high school fulfills its long-term goal to offer k-12 education, said Head of School Jim Callis.
