FCS elementary students (Kindergarten thru 6th grade)
are offered a strong academic program with a fun and
exciting learning environment. Our curriculum includes
a variety of subjects including a strong phonetic reading
curriculum, math, handwriting, Bible, science, social
studies, physical education, music, art and other special
units. Our goal is to shape the whole child, not just
academically, but in every area of their lives by challenging
them to be all God has created them to be.
Many opportunities are offered to high school students seeking
academic excellence. Honors courses offered: English, NC and World
History, Algebra I, II, Government and Economics, Grammar / Latin,
Chemistry, Physical Science and Geometry. Advanced Placement courses
offered: Biology, Junior and Senior High level Composition, and Calculus.
Bible courses are also an integral part of each student’s schedule. To
enhance a student’s overall experience, community service is a requirement
for students at FCS. Our commitment to small classes provides the best
environment for learning and growth. Our mission is to prepare students
not only for college, but for life through a Christian world view.
The Board of Directors is to
represent the parents, students, faculty, staff and administration
of Faith Christian School in determining and demanding appropriate
organizational performance. The board shall govern with an emphasis
on: biblically based integrity and truthfulness in all methods and
practices, outward vision rather than internal preoccupation,
strategic leadership more than administrative roles, collective
rather than individual decisions, future rather then past or present
and proactivity rather than reactivity.
The board of
directors will direct, control and inspire the organization through
the careful establishment of broad written policies reflecting the
board of directors’ values and perspectives about goals to be
achieved and means to be avoided. The board of directors ‘ major
policy focus will be on intended long term impacts outside the
organization, not on the administrative or programmatic means of
attaining those effects. Outreach mechanisms will be used as needed
to ensure the board of directors’ ability to listen to parent
viewpoints and values.
We believe that
Scriptures of the Old and New Testaments are inspired by God and
inerrant in the original writings, and that they are the supreme and
final authority in faith and conduct. We believe that deriving
practical applications from and modeling God’s Word are essential to
completing our mission consistent with biblical truth. In light of
this, the board adheres to God’s command in Matthew 18 for resolving
conflict. Anyone may request an audience with the board in writing
if the individual has sought to resolve the conflict at the direct
level. It is the desire of the board of directors of Faith Christian
School to honor God in all words, all deeds and all service.
