The Pilgrim Academy is a private non-profit Christian day school founded in 1971 by Dr. Warren Allem and the Emmanuel Church to serve the young people of southern New Jersey. The Academy seeks to give every student, without discrimination, a strong college-preparatory liberal arts education within the context of a Christian world and life view. The highest aim of the school is to see its students accept God's call to redemption and then apply Christianity to every area of life.
