Giving your children excellence in education is one of the best investments you can make as a parent. Since 2001, Foundations Christian School has been providing academic excellence for students K-12 in a caring Christian environment. FCS is dedicated to reaching the highest of academic standards, while sharing Christ’s love, instilling Christian values and nurturing the faith of our students. The purpose of this school is to give Christian training along with a solid academic foundation in the basic fundamentals of learning. Our faculty, staff and administration work closely together to further their academic success and spiritual well-being. Our small class sizes allow teachers to spend more quality time with each student. The primary curriculum used at FCS is from the A-Beka program, and teachers supplement with other quality materials as needed. Academic standards are high with added emphasis on patriotism and character training. In addition to academics, FCS students attend computer, gym, music and art classes.
We provide students with a challenging program of academic studies, character and spiritual development, and service opportunities. We share the desire of our parents, that their children become well-rounded individuals capable and determined to contribute in their families, their churches, their work places, and their communities.
Full Day Kindergarten
The outstanding Kindergarten reading program provides a great foundation for the future. Five-year-old students learn to recognize and write the letters of the alphabet along with their sounds and actually begin reading by December. Besides reading, your child will learn to count by 1’s, 2’s, 5’s, and 10’s to 100 and recognize the numbers before and after and other arithmetic facts. Children also develop valuable habits and social skills through daily experience.
Elementary
Your child’s future academic success depends upon a solid foundation. FCS is equipped to provide a learning program with proven academic results. Foundations Christian School’s educational program is so designed that the average student achieves above-average excellence. The instructional program for Grades 1-6 continues the educational foundation which was begun on the kindergarten level. FCS’s students consistently score higher than the national average on standardized achievement tests.
FCS’s outstanding reading program has a strong, systematic phonetic approach. It builds independent, confident reading. By the third grade, students can read basically anything. Even lower ability students learn to read successfully. Additional academic pursuits include language arts, mathematics, science, and social studies.
Middle & High School
FCS high school offers a college preparatory program of study with courses such as physics, geometry, foreign language along with a full complement of elective courses to suit the academic interests of each student.
The academic curriculum is developed to provide students with the best possible program of studies. There is emphasis on the mastery of the fundamental blocks of material necessary for satisfactory achievement in these areas. Along with the acquisition of facts and concepts in the areas studied, emphasis is placed upon the development and exercise of the powers of reasoning. Methods of teaching that are proven to be effective are utilized with a constant search for better methods. Realizing the difference in innate ability, we encourage and expect each student to perform to his maximum. We believe the traditional system of education best educates the mind and builds good character. It also encourages competition and teaches the value of living under a free enterprise system of government.
