Kingston Bible College Academy (KBCA) is a fundamental Independent Baptist school located in Kingston, Nova Scotia. It is a private schooling facility that offers grades primary though twelve. The school colors are blue, purple, white and red. The school was established in 1936 by Dr. John J. Sidey. The school teaches from a Christian perspective using a literalist interpretation of the Bible, supplements provincial textbooks with those from BJU Press and A Beka Book, and bans behaviour such as male–female touching and discussion of rock music.[1]

Crest

In 1985 KBCA introduced their current Academy crest. At the center of this crest is the Word of God and the verse Romans 8:29 which states the goal of Christian education. The lamp of knowledge at the top stands for intellectual development, the profile heads to the left stand for social development, and the victory wreath and torch to the right stand for physical development.

Principals

Ms. Beth Lennox is currently the principal of KBCA. Ms. Lennox came to Canada in April 1961 to teach at the Academy and has served extensively as the mathematics teacher of the high school.
