This school is amazing! My daughter is in Pre K...she is already reading and has an amazing teacher and great friends. Excellent curriculum! We will definetly be sending her back next year for kindergarten.
My children have been attending this school for 8 years and it has been a wonderful experience! My children have been blessed every year with teachers who love the Lord. The school population is small; therefore, the teachers get to know each student as an individual. The teachers and Principal offer many opportunities to allow our children to succeed in and out of the classroom. In addition, the Principal has incorporated new math and language curriculums which keep our children competitive. I highly recommend this school!
My family has had such a great reception from the school and their staff. Everyone has been very gracious and welcoming. We're excited that our children have the opportunity to go to here.
I have to say that my experience at this school has been fantastic. Everyone truly loves the students and it is noticable. It is something the school is know for. The academics here are excellent, and that is one of the reason's why we are here. A great school, great academics and a great value.
My children have been at FBCS for four years now and I know and trust the administration, teachers, and school families to provide them with a structured, God loving, and academically stellar environment. The small class sizes really allow the students an opportunity to excel or catch up depending on their learning curve. The teachers have always been receptive to my questions and always have open lines of communication. I always feel welcome in the school, the classroom, or anywhere I am at FBCS. The Lord and His ministry is certainly present at FBCS and each staff member I have had the pleasure to meet at the school are eager to share His love with you and your family.
This will be our 2nd yr @ First Baptist ., tried out the School because of the Christian atmosphere and the class size.However found that everyone who calls themselves christian .....are "by far not christian".. Giving it another year , keeping in mind that the class sizes are small and my girls will hear about the love of Jesus.Hopeful that my girls will be challenged academically , both are so advance maybe they will have the opportunity to "Soar" to the next level.
Three years ago, when I walked in this school I could feel the love for the students, teachers, and parents. Since then, the school has hired a new administration. The good teachers and the families who have been a staple at the school, are leaving in a mass exodus. No longer are the students', parents', or teachers' needs put first. It is all about the bottom line. The school is not clean, there are un-qualified teachers in the specials classes, and the academics are not as strong as they once were. It is sad to see what the new administration is doing to what once was a great school.
The new administration is terrible. The school is not cleaned on a regular basis, teachers and staff are leaving (in high numbers) and not being replaced. Specials are being taught by unqualified parents. Budget is the bottom line not students or a loving Christian environment. Would NOT recommend this school!!!
Unfortunately, the new administration is failing the school. The school is not cleaned on a regular basis. The curriculum desperately needs to be updated, and the teachers there are not qualified.
FBCS is a excellent school. I have 2 boys that attend and they love their school and have scored in the 90 percentile in SAT testing. It is an enriching spiritual environment which creates a great foundation for learning. Their is a new Principal who has made many improvements to the curriculum. We have Science Fairs, 2 days a week Phys ED, Music, Outdoor Living, Spanish, Computer and other fun and educational electives. I cannot say enough about their phonics reading program, it has been wonderful. We are not members of the Church or Baptist but we are completely accepted.
