The mission and purpose of Family Christian Academy’s centered Homeschool 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 others and offer connections for homeschool families to become part of the FCA family. We will assist parents by:
● Providing opportunities to participate in our athletic program including; football, volleyball, basketball, soccer, softball, baseball, and/or cross country.
● Providing opportunities to participate in our fine arts programs; art, band, and drama.
● Providing additional opportunities for our other electives; cadets (grades 7-12), life skills (grades 6-8), and strength and conditioning (grades 9-12).
Registration with Family Christian Academy Homeschool Umbrella allows students the opportunity to be part of our school community through involvement in sports, fine arts opportunities, and cadets program, along with electives such as life skills and strength and conditioning. We also offer the option to keep records, maintain a transcript for completed elective classes, and supply textbooks for each grade level, upon request. Additional fees apply.
