This school employs Christians from a variety of denominations. Our daughter is thriving here. We couldn't be happier to see how gracious the staff is and welcoming the students are to each other. This is not a cookie cutter school. Diversity at this school is one of its many strengths. The instruction is top notch. Its cool at this school to achieve.

The small class sizes and personal attention makes this different from other schools. There are a lot of Dual Enrollment and AP classes to choose from. The teachers care about each student and help us succeed. There are many clubs, sports, and music opportunities, and the administration listens and will add new things. It's a great place where everybody knows your name.

If ever there was a time to enroll your children in a private school, this is the year. As a grateful mother of an FCS student), I highly recommend this school. I've been wanting to write a public review for a few years, but not until I taught my final year in public school last year did I decide to do so by providing a few contrasting anecdotes as a public school English and ELL teacher. I was told to not teach grammar or etymology. (What I observed was a cram session prior to the scheduled 8th grade SOL.) I was told to not teach writing. (That's for 8th grade and yes, you guessed it - to be "taught" in 8th grade - prior to the SOL.) I didn't have my own classroom which is not that troubling because many teachers share a room. I taught 22 students in a busy hallway alcove near the bathroom & during a class change. Whatever your concerns might be with your local school, they're probably worse than you think.

I had the worst experience at this school. Do not reccomend. I sent my kid there and he came home with the biggest cut i have ever seen. We went to the hospital and he needed stitches. I called the school and they did nothing about it. Overall not reccommended.

Do NOT send your children to this school! There are better options. This is not biased it is true. My child spent a miserable year at this school. Our current school is so much better. There are several other students at our new school that left FCS as well over the years. Just because the Bible is...
