Home Education Program
Founded in 1990, Family Christian Academy continues with its mission to “Strengthen Families and America’s future through Christian Education.” Our program is based on over 30 years of research and experience.
We are dedicated to helping parents with every aspect of their children’s upbringing, especially their children’s education.
Home education promotes creativity for parents and a love of learning for children. We believe parents love their children and that children are a gift from God. For this reason, parents are best suited to teach, guide and discipline them.
Research now shows that, on average, children who are home educated actually perform better than their public or private school counterparts. This is not surprising since tutoring has always been recognized to be the best method of education.
Family Christian Academy will help your family step-by-step through the home education journey.
Our services include requesting records from your child’s previous school, guiding you through placement level testing and helping you choose the best curriculum for your family’s needs. To further enrich and complete your home educating experience, FCA provides Fine Arts Friday classes, tutoring services, Online Academy, Hybrid Homeschool classes for Pre-K through 12th grade students and we host several field trips throughout the year.
FCA teachers pay no sales tax on their academic purchases made through our bookstore.
At every point along the way, we are just a phone call or mouse click away. We are here to make your home educating a great success.
Connect all of learning with the truth of Scriptures and give your child a true, unified view of the world, instead of learning bits and pieces of different subjects.
Provide time and flexibility to explore God-given interests and talents.
Allow you to personally build your child’s self-confidence and develop mature social skills.
Promote family unity and constantly build the all-important relationships with parents and siblings.
Allow you to educate without peer pressure and destructive temptations.
Allow you to guide your child at his or her own pace, making sure each step is fully mastered.
