My overall experience at First Baptist Academy was nothing but impressive. The teachers truly cared about their students and helped them in any way they could. I met amazing people there, not only faculty but students. I am the student I am today because of them; I may not be as advanced academically had it not been for the people at First Baptist Academy.

I've been a part of the FBA family for 16 years... 13 as a student and now 3 as a teacher. As a student, I was loved and cared for by teachers, coaches, and administration that helped prepare me spiritually, academically, and socially for college and life beyond. It was because of this love and support that I decided to come back and teach at FBA, in hopes that I could do the same thing for the next generation. FBA is home to me and so many others. There's absolutely no place I'd rather be.

Overall the school is ok. The focus on kids passing and graduating regardless if they can do the work. If you want your kid to just pass, this is a great school. If you want your kid to learn, then maybe not the best school.

We were a little hesitant because of the perceived stigma of a Baptist setting, but this experience has been all that we could have asked for and more. Yes, the bible is a part of the curriculum here. But so are morals and daily conduct and being a good person. If it takes the bible to reinforce tho...
