Academics
Our mission is to educate our students from a biblically based worldview in a Christian environment. Believing that the primary mission of education is the development of a distinctly Christian soul, we team with parents and guardians, teachers, staff, students, and the body of Christ to promote the development of spiritual maturity, academic excellence, and athletic achievement.
A new command I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another. By this all men will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another.
John 13:34-35

The mission of the Bible Department is to assist each student who passes through FCHS to grow in their understanding in the truth of God’s Word, the Bible. The Department, committed to the inerrancy of Scripture, has established an appropriately rigorous, Christ-centered Bible curriculum that encourages academic excellence and a strong spiritual formation. The students will be aided in developing a Christian worldview and understand the impact that this worldview has not only on a Christian’s personal life but also how it impacts the society and culture in which they live. The ultimate goal is to stimulate every young person to experience and to develop a personal walk with Jesus that will stand firm in the face of any opposition they may face as they leave FCHS.
