Q: When was Faith Baptist Christian School founded?
A: The school was founded in 2009 as an outgrowth of the many homeschooling families in our church.
Q: Is it a fully graded program?
A: Yes. We offer grades kindergarten through twelfth grade, and the curriculum is intensely college preparatory in the high school.
Q: What curriculum does the school offer?
A: We use the A Beka DVD curriculum and textbooks to equip our students, featuring traditional mathematics and intensive phonics.
Q: Are the students tested?
A: Yes, all students in grades K5-12 are tested annually with the Stanford Achievement Test. Prospective students are also required to submit recent national testing scores before admission is granted.
Q: If my child wishes to attend college, is the school equipped to prepare him for that opportunity?
A: Yes, the school does provide a college-directed program that satisfies the requirements for institutes of higher learning. It is, however, our desire to see our young people continue their education at a Christian college or university.
Q: What are the requirements for admission?
A: Please see the Admissions page.
Q: What do you do to promote a spiritual atmosphere?
A: We offer weekly chapel services, a Bible-based curriculum, Scripture memorization, and a standard of conduct that both parents and students must agree to uphold upon enrollment. Because we believe that Bible class is the most important class of the day, it is taught the first class period of the day.
Q: What sports do you offer?
A: At this time, we do not offer sports, although physical education is a part of our curriculum.
Q: Do the students have to wear uniforms?

Q: Does the school have a hot lunch program?
A: No, we do not offer a daily hot lunch program. Students have access to the refrigerators and microwaves in the lunch area.
Q: Whom should I contact for answers to other questions?
A: Your first source for answers is the church office (931-649-5958). Our secretary can answer routine questions as well as refer you to someone who can handle your specific request.
