Who We Are
DSA, founded in 2006, is an interdenominational Christian school offering a well-rounded academic program. As a Dayspring Shire, students apply Godly attributes and Christian morals in the classrooms, hallways, on courts and fields while excelling in engineering, computer science, audio engineering, theater, and much more. Dayspring is not just a school – but a family with a dedicated faculty ready to serve.

At Dayspring students are equipped with the necessary tools to pursue careers in a variety of programs beginning as early as kindergarten. Whether a student dreams of becoming a civil engineer, mathematician, attorney, surgeon, or a computer programmer – Dayspring students are provided with the background to fulfill these dreams while allowing students to become familiar with each field.
Dayspring is a vision of the late Elder Bob C. Hardin and a mission of the middle Tennessee community, a welcoming Christian environment for young people to strengthen time-honored character attributes by receiving a top-notch education.
Students have 50+ hours of college credit through AP, CLEP, and dual enrollment courses available at DSA.

In Mrs. Suttle's kindergarten science class, our young scientists explored how the Sun warms the Earth and affects different materials. They observed, described, and collected weather data—just like real meteorologists! 🌦️📊
To understand how weather impacts daily life, students watched local forecasts and used their observations to decide how to dress. They also learned how weather forecasting helps us prepare for severe weather. ⛈️
After their discoveries, our little engineers took on a big challenge—designing structures to reduce the Sun’s warming effect! 🏗️💡 Check out their creative solutions!
