WELCOME
MESSAGE FROM OUR ADMISSIONS TEAM
Thank you for considering Foundation Academy as you make one of the most significant decisions a parent is called to make: choosing a school that upholds God’s teachings (Deuteronomy 6:7). From preschool to graduation, Foundation Academy shapes young minds through a comprehensive education, encompassing everything from reading and writing to solving differential equations. The influence of educators on your child’s worldview cannot be underestimated. Considering the substantial amount of time children spend in school versus at home, selecting a school that aligns with your values is paramount. Our dedicated teachers at FA not only excel in academics but also serve as mentors, instilling godly principles beyond the classroom. Every staff member, from teachers to administrators, is a committed Christian, ensuring a cohesive spiritual environment. We’re glad you are taking time to learn more and hope you will plan a campus visit to experience the FA family first hand. We can’t wait to meet you!

PERSONALIZED
“FOUNDATION ACADEMY HAS CHRIST-CENTERED TEACHING. THERE IS A GENUINE PARTNERSHIP BETWEEN PARENTS, THE ADMINISTRATION, AND STAFF. WE’VE EXPERIENCED NOTHING BUT WARMTH, KINDNESS, AND A LOVE FOR GOD AND OTHERS AT FA.”
- 9TH GRADE PARENT
A PERSONALIZED EXPERIENCE
God has gifted each high school student with his or her own talents, learning style, and future goals. At FA, students are encouraged to embrace their uniqueness as part of a tight- knit community and family where each student is valued and loved.
ATHLETICS
HEART OF A LION
ELEMENTARY | MIDDLE SCHOOL | HIGH SCHOOL
At Foundation Academy, student-athletes are pushed to develop what is referred to as The Heart of a Lion—a bold heart that confronts adversity with strength, dignity, and wisdom, loyally protecting others and facing fear when others will not.
Throughout the year, the Athletic Department focuses on this theme to come alongside each student-athlete as they become more intentional about practicing these character traits while displaying them for the FA Family—our Lion Pride.
Foundation Academy athletic program offerings include FA Youth (K-5), Middle School, Junior Varsity and Varsity teams.
COLLEGIATE RECRUITING
Foundation Academy is dedicated to guiding students through the intricate and competitive collegiate recruitment process, equipping them with the tools and knowledge needed to pursue their desired collegiate athletic opportunities successfully. Highlights of services provided include:
NCAA CLEARING-HOUSE ASSISTANCE PERFORMANCE FILMS TO SHOWCASE STUDENTS’ SKILLS AND ABILITIES. EVALUATING STUDENTS’ SKILL LEVELS AND ACADEMIC QUALIFICATIONS IN RELATION TO THEIR DESIRED COLLEGIATE OPPORTUNITIES. COMPREHENSIVE TRAINING ON DIRECT COMMUNICATION WITH COLLEGE COACHES AND ADMISSIONS REPRESENTATIVES
FAITH
CHAPEL |APOLOGETICS | COMMUNITY SERVICE | MISSIONS
In an educational community that honors and embraces diversity, our Christian private school prepares students with a foundation of faith and strength of character that inspires them to lead and impact the world for Christ. Through intentional Biblical teaching and personal faith, the Foundation Academy mentoring faculty teaches students how to think, not what to think. Through community service, they also learn the importance of giving back and civic responsibility.
SPIRITUAL GROWTH
“ACADEMICS WITH A CHRISTIAN FOCUS WAS THE MOST IMPORTANT THING TO ME, AND HAVING PEOPLE AROUND MY CHILDREN WITH THE SAME VALUES.”
- 10 GRADE PARENT
FINE ARTS
CREATIVITY
Throughout all of history, the vision of invention and progress was a result of creative thought and action. Nowhere is this more evident than in the first chapter of Genesis where God, the Master Creator of all things, spoke Heaven and Earth into being.
The Foundation Academy Fine Arts Department celebrates the excellence modeled for us in God’s creation. Each student is encouraged to stretch his or her imagination and expand his or her own ingenuity. While art celebrates the individuality of each student, a prudent curriculum is both aesthetically and practically educational.
