Apart from the Biblically-integrated curriculum and faith-filled teachers, we have intentional ways of helping students grow in their relationship with Christ. Weekly chapel and regular missions projects allow kids to act on their beliefs and spend time in worship with the Lord. Spiritual life is woven into all that we do as it shapes our learning, conversations and the way we treat one another.
With a yearly average record of over 7,000 hours of community service fulfilled, it’s no wonder why FCS students have a heart for service. We have multiple clubs dedicated to serving the community. Students work with organizations like the Rotary Club and Fredericksburg Area Food Bank, collect donations for mission trips, and participate in Operation Christmas Child. Serving others helps us develop servant leaders.
Whether your child is interested in tinkering with the STEM Club or leading their peers as a Student Ambassador, there is likely a club or organization at FCS to help them further develop their skills and build their confidence. Even students in elementary school can get involved outside of school hours with opportunities like Run Club and Book Club.
FCS has many long standing and newer traditions that make our school special. Events like Rake-A-Thon, Dr. Seuss Day, and Together We Soar which students and staff enjoy and look forward to each year. These fun events build relationships among our upper and lower schools as well as campus wide. We love to stand together in Christ through engaging and memorable experiences that foster unity and school spirit.
What Make FCS Special: A Student’s Perspective
Student Perspectives
From middle school to high school was kind of a weird transition for me. What I liked about FCS was that even though I felt a little bit insecure… my friends, and teachers – I had a close relationship with them – and it really helped me get through.

[Worship team] has been a really amazing opportunity. It’s taught me to lead and taught me the importance of spiritual growth.
