My son started attending in the 11 grade . Coming from a public school all of his life it was a big change for him . I have to say that the change was incredible . The school principal Ms. Bacon is truly a remarkable principal she cares for each and everyone of her students . The teachers take the time with each of the students . My son went from C/D at public school to A/B here at WFBA . I am so blessed that the school excepted my son to join their loving community . This has been such an incredible change for my son and our entire family . If you are considering sending your children to a private school in this area I would definitely consider West Florida Baptist .
