Faith Baptist Christian Academy

The purpose of Faith Baptist Christian Academy is to aid parents of school-age children – primarily members of Faith Baptist Church – in fulfilling their Biblical responsibility to bring up their children “in the nurture and admonition of the Lord.” As a church ministry, the mission of FBCA is to educate Christian young people and instill in them a love for God and a willingness to serve Him.
We strive to teach academics through the eyes of the Scriptures, with an understanding of the role that the God of all creation has every area of education and in our daily lives.
Students at FBCA are not only educated in the basics of academics, but are also held to high academic standards.
Our goal is for our students to graduate from FBCA ready to excel in their post-high school education or their chosen career path, however God may lead.
