Arts

First Baptist Academy provides a Visual and Performing Arts Program to foster and develop gifts, talents, and abilities for the glory of God. James 1:17a states, “Every good and perfect gift comes from above.” We recognize that every student is uniquely created by the Master Designer, with a God-ordained purpose and plan. The connecting pages will provide you with an overview of each of the visual and performing arts courses.

Some of the courses offered are listed as Related Arts classes for Elementary school, while others are electives in Middle and High School.

During the school year, the Academy hosts numerous special events to provide opportunities for public performance.

Elementary Media Crew

FBA Media Crew is made of 5th graders that have applied for this position. They work on a monthly rotation as camera, sound and reporters. Our FBA morning TV News Crew is produced every morning using a variety of professional equipment such as a teleprompter. We have a daily weather and geography report. Students announce special events going on in our school such as football games, concerts and fund raisers.

The Media Crew has had several guests visit our media center. We have had some of our senior football players, coaches and our school nurse. We have also had Mrs. Betsy Evans; FBCN Children’s Ministry Director come to invite our school to participate in the FBCN Trunk or Treat and challenged our students to invite the community to come as well.
