Academics

philosophy of education

Faith Christian Academy is a private college preparatory school located in Goldsboro, NC. We believe the Bible is the ultimate authority for education. God has entrusted parents and guardians with the responsibility of educating their children. That’s where we come in! As a ministry of Faith Free Will Baptist Church, FCA works alongside you to fulfill this responsibility through our academics. Every subject is taught in light of biblical truth. Our goal is to graduate students who are well-rounded, patriotic, socially adept, and knowledgeable of the Bible. How do we achieve that? Click below or scroll down to learn more!

Traditional approach

What does a traditional approach to education look like?

  • The teacher is in charge of the classroom.
  • The teacher is responsible for providing a structured atmosphere of order in which students learn.
  • The teacher has the authority to administer reasonable discipline to students.
  • Homework is assigned regularly and expected to be completed on time.
  • God’s Word is truth. Therefore, the curriculum taught is centered on God, teaching spiritual truths, morality, and patriotism.
  • Drill work and memorization are key tools in instruction.
  • Reading is taught by phonics.
  • The teacher is professional in manner and servant minded.
  • Rules and standards are essential.
  • True learning takes place in this order: control, communication, learning, then positive reinforcement.

whole-child development

While many college preparatory schools prioritize rigorous academics, FCA offers a holistic approach to education. We maintain high academic standards but place equal importance on personal development. By integrating biblical principles into all aspects of learning, students gain a deeper understanding of themselves and their purpose in Christ. They have opportunities to serve their community through missions and explore their passions through a variety of extracurricular activities. As a result, FCA graduates enter college with a strong sense of identity and a solid foundation for future success.
