FCS Faculty-Staff 2021

The faculty and staff at Faith Christian School do more than teach facts and formulas—they model and mentor what it means to know and love God by recognizing and loving what is good, true, and beautiful. They purposely seek to form students who are prepared for all that God has called them to do and become.

Not only does the Classical Christian model of education prioritize both virtue formation and the liberal arts, it brings the two together through skilled teachers who use the best content to enliven the imagination and inspire the students.
