Walnut Ridge Baptist
Academy desires to partner with every family wanting a Christian education
for their children, regardless of their financial situation. Therefore,
our tuition schedule is largely dependent on families’ ability
to pay. We invite you to visit us at The Ridge so we may review with
you how tuition would be structured for your specific family. To schedule
such a discussion, please contact Pastor Kerry Watkins, Administrator,
at (319) 235-9309.

through the Faith Partners Scholarship Fund. To apply, complete the
Faith Partner Scholarship application form included with this packet.
