The mission and purpose of Family Christian Academy’s Homeschool Umbrella Program is to come alongside parents who have chosen to educate their children at home. We desire to foster an individual’s relationship with Christ and with others, and to offer connections for homeschool families to become part of the FCA family. We will assist parents by providing opportunities for middle and high school students to participate in our athletic program, including football, volleyball, cross country, basketball, soccer, softball, baseball, track and field, and/or tennis. Registration with Family Christian Academy Homeschool Umbrella allows students to be part of our school community through sports involvement.

2. Participate in a Family Interview with the Athletic Director. The family interview will be scheduled via email once the entire application has been completed and reviewed. Parents and students are required to attend.
