PTG Studios is pleased to announce the selection of French Camp Academy for its innovative, educational television series, Pulse on America. The ministry will be featured in a segment on “Touching hearts, changing lives “ as part of a series on superior Christian education.

French Camp Academy, located near Jackson, MS, is a Christian boarding school founded in 1885 for teenagers who come from broken or troubled backgrounds. Not a reform institution or a college prep school, it is considered a safe environment for young people in crisis to live and learn, and the school is proud of its reputation to change young people’s lives.
French Camp Academy is a 900-acre community within a community.

Approximately 300 young people and adults live and work there. They are directed by a Board of Trustees and supported by many who pray and give regularly. The Academy is surrounded by the community of French Camp, and the roots reach back to the Natchez, Choctaw and Chickasaw Indians. Steeped in history, this southern community is 90 miles north of Jackson and 80 miles south of Tupelo.

Many of the young people who attend the Academy share many common disadvantages, including: overwhelming feelings of anger, fear of abandonment, lack of discipline, disrespect of authority figures, feelings of unworthiness, sense of academic inferiority, or one or more learning disabilities. The Academy believes that until these young people know that God loves them and they are taught how to overcome these disadvantages, they will grow up to continue the cycle of dysfunction and despair which has them in its grips. This scenario is detrimental to them personally and detrimental to society as well. Alarmingly, the numbers of these hurting children seem to be growing every year.

The Academy is committed to create a warm and nourishing environment reflecting the values of a Christian family and a Christ- centered education, a powerful combination that can bring about a radical change of life.
