We love FCS! The teachers and staff provide a caring environment. No school is perfect, but if you are looking for a quality, Christian education, I would highly recommend this school to you.
This is a wonderful school. The staff is outstanding and the kids are great. My only complaint is the kids are given too much homework which interferes with family time.
My four children attended Faith and I could not have been happier. They have all excelled in the local public H.S. A fine private Christian education where faculty, students, staff, and church leaders were exceptional!
We recently enrolled our two sons into Faith and we could not be happier!! The academics are outstanding, the teaching staff is amazing and the communication is the best! The rules, morals and values that we are teaching at home are encouraged during a school day. At other schools they would be pushed to the side! I take my two children to school each morning knowing that they are being taught, watched, respected and handled as they would in my home. We love the reward and praise system they have at this school. It really encourages the children to do their very best!
Great school. Children know what is expected of them and they rise to the occasion. The academic program is excellent and challenging.
My kids have been attending Faith since fall 2005 and they like the school a lot. There are many activities for them to be participate in and the teachers are very good. Great academic program that really encourages the students to grow.
This is my child's first year at FCS and I couldn't be happier. I am very pleased with the academic program and the pace at which my daughter is learning. I think the teacher's are doing a wonderful job and show such kindness and love towards the kids.
Academically my child did remarkable and the religious foundation was unmatched. I can certainly appreciate teaching children values and morals and enforcing structure and discipline, but Faith was just too extreme. I don't believe that they have realistic expections of children. Children should not be expected to behave as adults. They are children, subject to horse-play and error in judgement at times but they should not constantly be sent to the principal office for punishment especially if their action did not warrant it. I'm particular concerned with this years recent election and how the school dealt with that. I beleive that we live in a democracy and each individual has a right to vote for the candidate they think is best candidate. I believe that there is a fine line between church and state.
Both our children have gone to FCS since they were 3 years old. FCS continues to provide them with a distinctly Biblical education with eternity in mind! Each of our children are encouraged to do their personal best. The teachers are committed, hard-working born again Christians. The former principal was kind and knew each child by name. He was a great example of a leader. The present principal returns and she is an equally kind and competent leader.
This school provides a very good learning environment for children. They are extremely strict. However, they can be too strict. But overall i think this school is a good place to send your children.
