We are excited you are interested in seeking admission to First Baptist Academy! All the information a family needs to seek admission to FBA can be found on this page.
First Baptist Academy does not discriminate against students of any race, color, Nationality, ethnic origin, or social status for admission or in the administration of its educational policies, or other school-administrated programs. FBA is a ministry of First Baptist Church which is founded on the principles of the Christian faith. Parents will be expected to support the statement of faith detailed in the Parent Handbook by signing the Parent Pledge of acceptance without mental reservation. The school reserves the right, within its sole discretion, to refuse admission of an applicant or to discontinue enrollment of a student or staff member if the atmosphere or conduct within a particular home or the activities of the student/staff are counter to or are in opposition to the Statement of Faith. Substantial disagreement with school policies or philosophy is sufficient for the dismissal of a student after enrollment.
Admittance is contingent upon a satisfactory record (both behaviorally and academically) and parental assurance that they and the student share the same goals and objectives of the school.
