Welcome from the Head of School

Our Leadership

It is my great joy to welcome you to Madison-Ridgeland Academy! Whether you’re visiting our campus for the first time or exploring our website, I hope you’ll quickly sense what makes MRA such a special place.

For more than fifty years, MRA has been committed to developing the mind, body, and spirit of each student for God’s glory. From our youngest Patriots in Preschool and Kindergarten to our soon-to-be graduates, we partner with families to provide an environment where students are known, challenged, and loved. Excellence is a hallmark of an MRA education—inside the classroom, on the stage, on the field, and in service to others.

Faith and service are woven into everything we do. In every subject, activity, and conversation, we point students toward truth and help them see God’s hand at work in their lives. We value each child’s unique strengths and believe that every student has a place and a purpose here. Together, we strive to honor God through our learning, leadership, and love for others.

I invite you to visit our beautiful campus and experience firsthand the warmth, energy, and excellence that define Madison-Ridgeland Academy.

In His service,
Termie Land
Head of School

As chairman of the Board of Trustees, I am proud of the exceptional work of our teachers and staff who remain steadfast in their mission to prepare students for a life of purpose. MRA is more than a school - it is a Christ-centered community where faith and learning thrive.
