Do not go there if you do not start at kindergarten your child will be bullyed and will not be accepted at the school, but if you do start them at kindergarten they will learn not to accept anyone who is different. The parents control the school like a dictatorship and get mad over the slightest thing.

I am enrolled in the home school umbrella at First Baptist Academy. The home school director is a wonderful lady who makes enrolling with FBA a great experience. My mom is my teacher, but First Baptist has offered home school art classes that I have taken in the past. Enrolling in FBA has been a great experience.
