Admissions Policy

​

Our course of study is designed to meet the needs of students who are average or above average in ability and achievement.  Although the school is able to help some students who have mild learning difficulties, we are not at this time able to provide programs for students who require unique or specialized educational accommodations. 
 

Faith Christian School does not discriminate on the basis of race, color, nationality, and ethnic origin in administration of its educational and admission policies. FCS admits students of any race, color, nationality, and ethnic origin to all rights, privileges, programs, and activities generally accorded or made available to students of the school.  All students, regardless of race, color, national or ethnic origin must meet minimum qualifications to be admitted. 
 

Admission standards are designed to identify students who:

This requirement may be evidenced by the individuals’ testimony of their regeneration and spiritual walk or in observation by others, such as a pastoral recommendation based on regular participation in a local church.

STATEMENT OF FAITH

Because the Bible does play such an important role in the life of FCS, our position on the Bible and its teachings is of paramount importance.  Being non-denominational does not mean we do not believe or teach anything specific.  It does mean that denominational differences will not be emphasized at FCS.
 

• We believe the Scriptures of the Old and New Testaments are verbally inspired by God and inerrant in the original writings, and that they are the supreme and final authority in faith and practice.

• We believe in one God, eternally existing in three persons:  Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.

• We believe that Jesus Christ was begotten by the Holy Spirit, born of the Virgin Mary, and is true God and true man.

• We believe that man was created in the image of God; that he sinned, and thereby incurred not only physical death, but also that spiritual death which is separation from God; and that all human beings are born with a sinful nature and manifest themselves as sinners in thought, word and deed.    

• We believe that the Lord Jesus Christ died for the sins of all men, according to the Scriptures, as a representative and substitutionary sacrifice; and that all men who believe in Him are justified on the ground of His shed blood.

• We believe that all who receive by faith the Lord Jesus Christ are born again of the Holy Spirit and thereby become children of God. 

• We believe that as God’s children, we are saved to share our faith as well as to live lives of holiness.

• We believe in the resurrection of the crucified body of our Lord, in His ascension into heaven, and in His present life there for us as High Priest and Advocate.

• We believe in that blessed hope, the personal and imminent return of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ

• We believe in the bodily resurrection of the just and the unjust, the everlasting blessedness of the saved, and the everlasting punishment of the lost.

• We believe that God created marriage in the beginning, as a blessing for both man and woman, before any sin or rebellion entered the world, and that he created marriage to be between one man and one woman, who enter into a covenant relationship, complement one another, serve one another, and sanctify one another for as long as they both shall live. Accordingly, we do not accept cohabitation of unmarried couples and any attempt to redefine marriage as a union between people of the same sex, as between more than one man and one woman.  We believe that the homosexual lifestyle and alternative gender identities are contrary to the Bible (Gen 1:27-28; 2:15-24; Lev 18:22; Lev 20:13a; Matt 19:4-6; Rom 1:26-27; 1 Cor 7:14).
