Fine Arts
Faith Christian Academy emphasizes the arts by teaching music and art classes. Our art room is furnished to provide a creative setting for the class. The music classes involve instruction and class participation. Choir, handbells, drama, and speech enable the students to be involved in the arts.
Several evenings each year are set aside for special programs, music concerts, art exhibits, and the Academic Fair. Student involvement is encouraged. FCA tries to provide opportunities for students to use the talents God has given them in all areas of life.
The Fine Arts classes available for each grade vary based on the grade level. You will find the Fine Arts available for each grade level under Academics and below.
