Preparing Students for College and Their Vocation
Through discovery, experience and celebration, our goal is that students exit our high school with a clear understanding of their vocation and are on a trajectory where they will thrive and actively participate in God’s redemptive work in the world.
For some students, that means attending a 2- or 4-year university or technical college. For others, the fulfillment of God’s calling takes them directly into an apprenticeship, the military, or the workforce. At Firm Foundation Christian High School, we value and affirm each individual path knowing that God has designed each student in a unique and valuable way.
“The foundation I received at FFCS gave me the tools to enter the world as a compassionate, strong servant of God. It also helped build my confidence in Christ, even when presented with potential ‘proof’ against it.”

Chapel
FFCS is committed to providing every student with an outstanding education that has at its center God’s Word and His will for them. Our high school students learn to think more deeply about God’s Word and what it means for them. They are taught the significance of Jesus’ death and resurrection, namely that it is the only hope of all mankind. As they grow in their faith, our goal is also to equip them to show the love of Christ through what they say and how they live their lives.
Immediately following chapel, students are given the opportunity to further engage in the message through “Digging Deeper.” This time is designed to encourage them to share and reflect on the message under the guidance of caring teachers, as well as pray for one another in a small group setting.
Student Support
We understand that it can take a strong community of staff, teachers, and parents to raise children to be successful thriving leaders. If you have a specific concern, please schedule a time to meet with our MS/HS Vice Principal, Staci Jones, who can be reached at sjones@ffcs.org. Thank you for the opportunity to serve you and your students!
