FAYETTEVILLE CHRISTIAN SCHOOL

We are delighted that you are considering Fayetteville Christian School for your child(ren). Choosing a school is a significant decision, and we are honored to walk alongside you as you prayerfully explore the best educational environment for your family. Our goal is to provide you with clear and helpful information—both through this website and by inviting you to experience FCS firsthand through a personal campus tour.

At FCS, enrolling a student means welcoming an entire family into our school community. Because of this, it is important that both parents and students have a clear understanding of who we are, what we believe, and how those beliefs shape our school culture. We encourage families to prayerfully consider whether Fayetteville Christian School aligns with their core values and convictions.

Our mission is to teach students about God’s incredible love, forgiveness, and mercy, and to encourage each student to grow in a personal and meaningful relationship with Him. These biblical convictions guide our policies, procedures, and approach to education.

Below you will find our admissions criteria. Before submitting an application, please review our admissions policy carefully to ensure that you are in agreement.

 

ADMISSIONS REQUIREMENTS

Fayetteville Christian School admits students who meet the following criteria:

Academic and Behavioral Standards
Applicants must demonstrate satisfactory academic performance, defined as a minimum overall C average, be in good standing at their current or most recent school, and have no significant or unresolved disciplinary issues.

Spiritual Alignment
The student and at least one parent or legal guardian with whom the student resides must be in agreement with the Fayetteville Christian School Statement of Faith. The parent and student must profess faith in Jesus Christ as Savior and be actively involved in regular fellowship at a local Christian church.

Fayetteville Christian School affirms the absolute Deity of Jesus Christ and the Trinity, and that salvation is found in Jesus Christ alone. Accordingly, the school does not admit families who belong to or affirm religious beliefs that deny these biblical truths. Students and families are expected to demonstrate a Christian lifestyle consistent with biblical teaching as outlined in the Statement of Faith.

Conduct Expectations
FCS will not admit families who engage in behaviors that Scripture identifies as sinful or contrary to biblical standards. Following admission, if a student or the parent/legal guardian with whom the student resides becomes involved in such behaviors, the school reserves the right to dismiss the student and/or family.

Age and Developmental Requirements
Students must be four (4) years old by August 31 to enter Pre-Kindergarten and five (5) years old by August 31 to enter Kindergarten.

Students entering Pre-Kindergarten and Kindergarten must be fully toilet-trained. Students should be able to recognize the need to use the restroom and communicate that need to their teacher independently. While occasional accidents or temporary medical conditions are understood, students who experience frequent accidents may be required to remain at home until they are fully toilet-trained or the medical issue has been resolved.
