From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Chisholm Trail Academy (CTA) is a Seventh-day Adventist co-educational high school located at Fourth and Old Betsy in Keene, Texas. Keene is located midway between Alvarado and Cleburne, 25 miles south of Fort Worth. CTA is situated on 27 acres. The facility includes two ball fields, a gymnasium with stage, 15 classrooms, a library, an industrial vocational building and an administrative complex.
Chisholm Trail Academy came into existence when Southwestern Junior College (now Southwestern Adventist University) was granted full college status and closed its academy operation in 1967. CTA's first graduating class was in 1968.
Chisholm Trail Academy (grades 9-12) provides for the education of the young people in the Seventh-day Adventist churches located in the Keene area. Along with Keene Adventist Elementary School (K-8) and Southwestern Adventist University (college and postgraduate), CTA provides a complete Christian church school program. The Keene Seventh-day Adventist Church is the constituent church of CTA.
