Admission Requirements
What we expect of the applicants in grades 6-12:
- Each student is to have a clear profession of saving faith. If a student has not made a profession of faith, he must be seeking God.
- Applicants may be asked to provide recommendations from their pastor and two other non-relative adults.
- Each student is to have a minimum grade point average of 2.0 (on a 4.0 scale) for the previous year’s studies.
- The grade point average requirement can be waived by the administrator if after testing the student shows an adequate knowledge base and potential. However, such students will enter the school under probation and be given a semester to demonstrate their sincerity and ability.
- Each student must have a behavioral history that is in accordance with the standards and expectations of God’s Word and FCCS.
- If after records are received from the previous school, there is information that was not disclosed in the application process but later revealed in transcripts and disciplinary reports, the student may be placed on disciplinary or academic probation immediately. If there was outright dishonesty in the application process in the hopes of hiding the truth, students may be dismissed immediately.
Students in our younger grades are held to reasonable expectations for their age groups. We look for growth and improvement not only in their academic accomplishments, but in their personal and spiritual successes as well.

Additional Information
What we ARE
Faith Community Christian School admits students of any race, color, national origin, and ethnic origin to all the rights, privileges, programs, and activities generally accorded or made available to students at the school. It does not discriminate based on race, color, national origin, or ethnic origin in the administration of its educational policies, admission policies, scholarship, and athletic and other school-administered programs.
Faith Community Christian School is committed to the United States of America, its founding documents, and the protection of religious freedom in America. Therefore, the Declaration of Independence, the Constitution, the Bill of Rights, and other original documents will be respected, honored, and studied as the political basis for our freedom to worship, live, educate, and evangelize as we see fit.
Faith Community Christian School affirms the inherent call to evangelism that is foundational to the Christian faith. Therefore, FCCS will teach the gospel of Christ to its students and will cultivate the Biblical mandate of evangelism in the educational process.
With that said, Faith Community Christian School has some limitations. We cannot function as a facility of rehabilitation whereby parents seek to enroll their children in a Christian school environment to address emerging patterns of undesirable behavior. Our first priority is to our current students, as we must protect their learning environment and safety.
We want ALL students to succeed, but we are currently not equipped to instruct students with lengthy or complicated IEPs, who are on the spectrum, or who have special needs that require an aide. We can connect students to local public school therapists for speech and hearing needs, however.
