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.

What does a “perfect society” look like? Can it even exist?
Our 7th graders are tackling that big question after reading “The Giver” as they design their own utopian communities. From creating laws and government systems to mapping out their towns and building detailed models. Students are thinking critically, collaborating, and bringing big ideas to life.
Learning gets pretty exciting when imagination meets problem-solving!
