Bridgepoint Christian School- This private school includes grades K4-12 with about 60 students. Bridgepoint has a 33-year history and moved to Clay around six years ago. The curriculum is the Accelerated Christian Education®. The school boasts a low student-to-teacher ratio and staff that adjusts to the particular education needs of each student.

Since 1937, the Department of Youth Service Chalkville Campus has been the facility for educating juvenile adjudicated girls. The secured area, with an attractive limestone building, sits off the road. The building was a U.S. Works Progress Administration construction project. 
 

Employees live in the local area, and other Clay residents assist with ministry programs for the students.
 

This is the only state long-term-stay facility for delinquent girls.
