With a working goal of $2,645,000, this campaign specifically seeks funding for Upper School Renovations and a New Athletic Field and Athletic Pavilion.
Raised to Date

Built in 1997, our Upper School building requires renovations to accommodate our growing student body and evolving educational needs. Modernizing these facilities will create additional space, support innovative learning environments, and enhance accessibility for all students.
This renovation will address overcrowded classrooms, introduce specialized science facilities, and establish collaborative spaces that foster creativity and engagement. Investing in these updates reflects our commitment to delivering a high-quality education and preparing students for the future.
Additionally, we remain dedicated to improving our athletic fields. While these were included in our last capital campaign, funding limitations prevented their completion. Athletics are an essential part of a well-rounded education, promoting physical health, teamwork, and discipline. Continued investment in these spaces will ensure students benefit fully from our athletic programs.
We chose the campaign name ROOTED because FCS has been ROOTED in the Fredericksburg area for over 40 years. As we continue to deepen our roots we are committed to being stewards of what God has already entrusted us with, and we are trusting His provision as we continue to plan for the future. We pray that through this campaign, our roots grow stronger and deeper, increasing the gospel footprint of FCS!“

Athletic Fields Progress
Thanks to the ongoing success of our capital campaign and the generous support that has allowed us to make progress on our project goals, we are now able to take the next step toward another long-awaited dream – the FCS Home Stadium! Together with like-minded donors, we are thrilled to begin this exciting new chapter.
Announcing: The FCS Home Stadium
With the support of our board members and our giving community, on Wednesday, March 26th we will officially break ground on what will become our FCS Home Stadium.
This project represents the next phase of our ongoing field projects and comes at a time when this addition is more needed than ever. We look forward to what God has in store as we continue to build facilities that serve our students and glorify Him.

Our family has been a part of FCS for seven years now. We wanted to feel just as much a part of the community as our kids, so we would volunteer whenever the need would arise, help however we could when asked, and attend events that the school would host. We have built friendships with people within the FCS community that we now consider family.
Continuous growth requires continuous action. Campaigning is a necessary part of the growth process. Campaigning doesn’t just build bigger buildings; it puts FCS in a position to bring a greater number of children to Christ.
We have been reaping the benefits from the generosity of others from the last campaign. We started at FCS at the end of the lower school campaign and did not give towards it. We now feel called to be a part of the ROOTED campaign to help further the success of FCS and be a part of something we can look back on years from now and be thankful we had a small part in it.
We hope that you will join us in our capital campaign, ROOTED, so that we, as followers of Christ, committed to our mission, will continue to be ‘rooted and established in love’ (Ephesians 3: 17-19) as we engage together to further the mission of FCS. I am praying that every one of you – every member of the FCS community – will take advantage of the privilege we have to work together for the benefit of these precious children and for the building of the Kingdom.

Rylie is part of the class of 2025 and received an offer to play softball at LSU.
Rylie not only has an impressive record on the softball field but also in her academic endeavors.
Rylie says, “I am so grateful for the opportunity my parents gave me by going to this school. Getting a Christian education is so important to me and it has given me a Christian foundation before experiencing the real world. The teachers make FCS great. They are people I can go to and they will be there for me.

Noah graduated from FCS in 2023 and now attends Christopher Newport University. During his time at FCS, Noah was an accomplished student and set many records on the football field. He is now majoring in Kinesiology on the pre-med track. Noah hopes to become an orthopedic surgeon. At CNU, Noah played safety on the football team and made a game-sealing interception that allowed the team to win the NJAC conference title for the first time in CNU’s history.
Donors helped support the quality Christian education that Noah received and now Noah shares what he learned with others.
God influences the world through His people. Every dollar you give to FCS makes an impact not just in this community, but around this country and across the world — for the glory of Jesus Christ. Your gift helps to ensure that the Gospel is preached, the classroom instruction is infused with God’s truth, our students’ lives are changed, and the foundation of God’s biblical world view is laid in another generation.
