It's a good school for the most part. The rules there though could use a ton of work. It doesn't seem like the administration knows what the students really want. But you will get more opportunities at Foundation than you would at a big public school.

The academics are fantastic, but I wish they would listen to the wants of the students more often. When a teacher is ineffective, or just bad they do nothing to correct the behavior. There is no real way to have your desires heard, which this school really needs. Basically all students are frustrated and aren't given any opportunity to speak their mind. It can grow dangerous to have a bunch of teens become resentful towards their teachers and admin.

Our daughter has been attending FCA for 3 years now and is starting middle school in the fall. We were very unhappy with the public school she was in because they did not challenge her and she was bored. FCA’s curriculum allowed her to be challenged and encouraged her talents in the arts. With the c...
