Mission

Our mission is to partner with families to provide an environment of academic excellence, with Biblical knowledge, while preparing our students to be young people of character who represent our Lord Jesus Christ in all walks of life.

Welcome to First Academy

First Academy partners with families to provide a dynamic learning environment where students thrive academically and grow spiritually, preparing them to be leaders who make an impact for Christ. Our commitment to a Christ-centered education means that Biblical values are woven into every subject, helping students develop a strong moral foundation along with critical thinking skills.

Vision

Our vision is to impact our world by preparing students to become Godly warriors as we implement discipleship (Matthew 28:16-20), encourage integrity (Psalm 15:1-5), and expect excellence (I Corinthians 10:31).
