Dear Parents and Students,

The Lord has put upon my heart a clear vision for this year to initiate a teaching that will become a hallmark characteristic of FBA middle school academics.  I want every student to be trained in how to be an American patriot.  I will be speaking, preaching and teaching from a rich biblical heritage to help your young people understand American exceptionalism, the biblical principles of the Declaration of Independence and the US Constitution, and the biblical principles of Christian citizenship.   

 

I hope you will be blessed by the presentation delivered during our Middle School chapel service on August 30, 2012.

 

In His service,

John S. McGillicuddy

FBA Middle School
"HIGHLIGHTS"
  • Middle school students excelled as the top fund raising group in the community for The Pregnancy Resource Center’s annual Walk for Life.
  • Middle school students are trained in conflict resolution skills in the 7th grade.  How do we build a real, right relationship with the Lord and others?  Real, right relationships are the focus of middle school life.
  • Middle School students are featured speakers in end of the year chapels.  They make presentations in apologetics, biblical world view, bioethical issues and our American Heritage.
  • Eighth grade boys are enlisted and then mentored, discipled, coached and trained to be steward leaders for the middle school and beyond.  Vision, skills, incentives, resources and an action plan are all vital components to the leadership program that meets once a week throughout the school year.
  • Eighth graders are trained in etiquette which they put into practice when they go to the Bayhouse Restaurant to experience a formal dining event.
  • Eighth grade students are trained to take a stand against abortion on demand by learning how to debate the issue in the public square. 
  • Seventh and eighth grade students are trained to understand and communicate the five biblical principles that our founding fathers used in the Declaration of Independence to fashion the Constitutional Republic of the United States of America.
  • Seventh and sixth grade students take music everyday all year.  Eighth graders take music three days a week all year.  Middle school is dedicated to the valuable role that music plays in academics and life.
  • Students are trained in biblical world view so they can articulate with clarity and conviction what they believe and why they believe it.
