Faith Christian Academy
About the School
- We began in 1988 as a group of parents who, just like you, were concerned about what our children were being taught in the public schools.
- Since then, the prevailing secular philosophy found in most core curriculum has only gotten worse.
- In contrast, we believe that God`s word, His principles, and His standards for living should be foundational to a child`s education.
- Today, thirty three years later, Faith Christian Academy offers classes for Preschool through 12th grade with full accreditation.
