ADMISSION POLICIES
The admissions policy is developed with the commitment to determine whether or not Fellowship Christian Academy is the best possible fit for each student applying for admittance. As a Christ-centered school, we are dedicated to providing our students with an education that will allow them to grow to full potential academically, spiritually, physically, and emotionally.
