STEP UP SCHOLARSHIP

FCA is not a private school and does not except other scholarships from the state of Florida, or any other government body. Our desire is to remain completely free of the bureaucratic interference that often accompanies school choice scholarships. As an independent entity, we have the freedom to make educational and spiritual policies that we believe are best for a young Christian student. 

Freedom Christian Academy offers a unique small group structure and flexible learning opportunities that will likely benefit a wide variety of learners. While students who apply may have an IEP in place, FCA will not formally follow previously written plans. However, because all children are unique, we will be happy to meet with parents to look at an IEP to see if FCA can provide services for your child. We have teachers on staff that have ESC certification.
