Philosophy of Education

Firewheel Christian Academy

Firewheel Christian Academy is a ministry of First at Firewheel Church. It was established in 1981 as a private Christian school committed to providing a biblically-based education by using biblically based curriculum to teach all the subjects as parts of an integrated whole with the Scriptures as the center. We strive to operate as an extension of the family under the assumption that the education of young people is the responsibility of parents.

From 4 year old (by Sept 1) through 8th grade, Firewheel Christian Academy provides the tools for success in the classroom and in life. A well-rounded Christian experience is provided with solid academics and enriching arts. FCA offers a safe environment with first-rate teachers who are state qualified and committed to Jesus Christ in their personal and professional lives. Students thrive on personalized attention in classrooms just the right size for learning.

FCA’s philosophy of education

FCA’s philosophy of education centers around two very important aspects – Jesus Christ and our students. We believe that if you put Christ first in every endeavor from academics to the arts and physical athletics, students will excel. Our mission at FCA is to educate our students for lifelong success and to enrich their lives with Christian purpose. We take that mandate very seriously and are striving to maintain rigorous educational standards while preserving Christian integrity in the learning process.
