Great school overall. Compared to other private schools in the area, this is one of the best in regards to teacher-student ratio.

As a parent who has been part of the FCS family for 6 years now, I highly recommend this school to any family that is looking for a solid academic education accompanied with a solid Christian Education. My daughter who graduated 2 years ago from there and was accepted to Miami Dade Honors College due to excellent academic performance. I currently have 2 high school boys attending the school and they are following their sisters steps. The school also offers most sports as well as arts and music programs for those kids not into sports. This school to me is an "All-Inclusive" school that helps my children develop in the manner that God intended them to.

A private school was not in our plans until I learned about Florida Christian School. My daughter who is currently in 8th grade has been attending FCS since Kindergarten. The academic curriculum has been diverse with the opportunity to expand knowledge and promote interests in various subjects. The teachers have been engaging and loving. The school offers honors programs, as well as extra-curricular academic reinforcements in subjects like Science, Language and Math. There are highly stimulating programs for the arts and music. Last year we went on a school excursion to Costa Rica with a group of students and teachers, great experience which was led by a wonderful Science teacher. In 2014, we are planning to go to Japan with the school band, with the most loved and talented band director. The sports teams are highly competitive and respected amongst other schools. The administration of the school is genuinely involved in working with the parents. The teachers truly care about incorporating in all the curricula the Christian values and the advancement of strong character traits. The Word of God is taught along with the hope of salvation through Jesus Christ. I thank God for the privilege of having my daughter attend this school.
