School Notes

FBCA seeks to provide students an exceptional, well-rounded education, by means of an integrated curriculum, pedagogy and culture, with distinctively Christian values in all we do - academically, socially, spiritually, and physically.

School Mascot: Crusaders

At FBCA, we use a strategically differentiated selection of curriculum that allows for our students to excel academically, while still allowing for exceptional Christian discipleship and spiritual growth. We offer low student to teacher ratios and a personalized approach to the cognitive development of each of our students.
FBCA offers a variety of Jr. High and Varsity sports, along with a diverse array of clubs and extracurricular offerings. One area that makes our school unique is that our students participate in daily Bible classes; this is a core foundation of the Academy. Our administration and staff firmly believe that the spiritual battle that is occurring across this country for our young peoples' hearts and souls can be won with regularly occurring fundamental Biblical teaching.
All of our teachers are licensed educators through Florida Association of Christian Colleges & Schools (FACCS). Our staff is required to do weekly in-service training in areas such as: educational technology, differentiated instruction, effective classroom management, curriculum mapping, educational advancement for special needs students, and appropriate implementation of Christian education across all cognitive subjects.
