School Notes
- First Baptist Academy is a ministry of First Baptist Church, Conroe. The purpose of First Baptist Academy is to provide a quality Christian education where each student will grow to become more like Christ and pursue God's purpose for his or her life. We utilize educationally sound curriculum that can also be found in public schools in order that we can adequately prepare our students to ultimately enter public or private elementary schools. Children leave our pre-kindergarten classes well prepared to take on the challenges of the next grade level. Classes range in size from 10 (toddlers) to 16 (pre-kindergarten) with a full time teacher and aide in each class. In addition, we have an Enrichment teacher for PreK and a Music & Movement teacher for all classes.
