This is what 'valedictorian' looks like at Faith Academy.
BUILT FOR STUDENTS TRADITIONAL SCHOOLS WERE NOT BUILT FOR
Faith Academy is fully accredited by the Georgia Accrediting Commission—the same accreditation that makes our graduates eligible for the HOPE Scholarship.
Our model was designed for students who can't make a traditional school schedule work. Students come to campus one day a week to pick up assignments, then complete their coursework at home at their own pace. Faculty are on campus that day and throughout the week to provide face-to-face support when students need it.
This is the school for the working student balancing a job and a class load. The student who got sick, fell behind, and needs a real path back. The homeschooler adding credits to round out their transcript. The kid everyone gave up on—who just needed a different school to succeed at.
HOW WE SERVE EVERY STUDENT WHO WALKS THROUGH THE DOOR
Every student who enrolls at Faith Academy gets five things from us — every week, every semester, no exceptions.
SUPPORT- Faculty on campus every pickup day, plus throughout the week, to help with coursework when students get stuck. No waiting until the next class period. No falling further behind before getting help.
ENCOURAGE- A Christ-centered environment where students are known by name and built up, not ranked against each other. Students grow in their personal relationship with Christ alongside their academic work.
RECOGNIZE- We see what each student is capable of, even when previous schools didn't. Every student here has potential. Our job is to help them see it too.
VALUE- Every student is a unique creation of God, with a story that brought them here. We don't treat students like a number on a roster. We treat them like the person they are.
EQUIP- Students leave Faith Academy with an accredited high school diploma and the preparation to pursue college, trade school, military service, or whatever comes next. Our graduates are eligible for the HOPE Scholarship when they meet the requirements.
This is how we've engaged with over 42,000 students since 1987. This is how we educate every student who walks through our doors today.
