It moved to West 9th Avenue in 1956, where it operated grades 1–10 under the name "Escondido Junior Academy." In 1982, it added Kindergarten and grades 11 and 12 and a few new buildings. It also changed to its current name to reflect its new senior academy status. In 2008, the school sold its 9th Avenue campus and moved to a new facility on Deodar Road, as part of a joint campus with the Escondido Seventh-day Adventist Church.
The school is accredited by the Board of Regents of the General Conference of SDAs and the Western Association of Schools and Colleges (WASC).

Curriculum
The schools curriculum consists primarily of the standard courses taught at college preparatory schools across the world. All students are required to take classes in the core areas of English, Basic Sciences, Mathematics, a Foreign Language, and Social Sciences.
Spiritual aspects
All students take religion classes each year that they are enrolled. These classes cover topics in biblical history and Christian and denominational doctrines. Instructors in other disciplines also begin each class period with prayer or a short devotional thought, many which encourage student input. Weekly, the entire student body gathers together in the auditorium for an hour-long chapel service. Outside the classrooms there is year-round spiritually oriented programming that relies on student involvement.
