Mission: Provide a comprehensive, Christ-centered education that equips students to discover truth through the lens of Scripture, to fulfill their potential for further academic pursuits, and to be conformed to the image of Christ.

History: Founded in 1981, Faith Christian School has educated hundreds of students from five area counties in rented facilities at Calvary Community Church in Williams Bay, Wisconsin. Twenty acres of land was purchased in 1994, and the school moved into a new facility in the Fall of 2002. 

Curriculum: Faith’s philosophy of education focuses on Christ as being central to learning. To facilitate that philosophy, we take a subject or teacher centered approach to the classroom, following a more traditional approach to education that seeks the students’ mastery of the subject in accordance with the standard of truth.

In the elementary grades, the A Beka curriculum is used to establish an excellent foundation in mathematics and reading. Saxon mathematics is used in the junior and senior high, a more traditional approach to math. A variety of curricula are used in the junior and senior high program in other subjects. The curriculum and classroom teaching is designed to integrate a Biblical world-view so that students can see not only God’s hand in all of learning, but can also see God’s purposefulness for learning.
