Redlands is…
Redlands Adventist Academy is a K-12 WASC accredited Christian school owned and operated by the Seventh-day Adventist church and located in the heart of Redlands, California. We opened our doors in 1903 to just 18 elementary students, and have since grown to include junior high and high school, becoming a full-fledged academy in 2003. Currently we have an enrollment of about 400 students annually.
