MA sweeps TNCAA golf tournament

Yesterday, the Madison Academy golf team won 1st-Parker Rufo, 2nd- Josh Hardin and third place-Andre Crayton in the Tennessee Christian Athletes Association [TNCAA] golf tournament held at Riverside Golf Course. Parker shot a personal best 55 and tied with Josh after nine holes.  Because of time constraints officials had a card playoff to determine the winner.  The seventh hole was considered the hardest hole and Parker had the better score so Parker was declared the champion.

Madison Academy offers SAT to Seniors

This year seniors will be able to take either the ACT or the SAT on campus.  Both tests measure college readiness and are used in the college admission process for incoming freshmen.  When applying to colleges and universities, it is important for Seniors to know the admission requirements.  Some schools use only ACT while others use only SAT. Many colleges allow students to use either.  For a schedule of testing dates here at Madison Academy for either ACT or SAT go to Academics-Testing program on our website.
