So thankful for a school where my students can learn to think! 21st century skills, arts, project-based learning and a family atmosphere. Think uncommonly! We are TFA!

My son is finishing his third year at The Foundation Academy, and we couldn't be happier. TFA truly teaches the WHOLE child, with tai chi, Bible, community service, field trips, physical education, STEAM, the arts, gardening, student-led and problem based projects, and small teacher-student ratio. The school truly feels like a family. We are so blessed to have found a school that approaches eduction in a progressive and equitable way.
