Florida College Academy's Mission

To provide a quality education for students in
core subject areas, which are taught in the context
of the Bible, to prepare students intellectually
and spiritually for further academic studies and
to encourage all students to realize their full
potential in the areas of intelligence, spirituality
and social awareness.


Florida College Academy provides a learning environment where biblical principles are taught and exemplified. From the beginning, Florida College's founders wanted students to receive an education which included a knowledge of God and His creation. Daily Bible classes and Chapel provide opportunities to focus on Christian attitudes and concepts. Students at FCA are instructed in four principles of respect:

Respect for yourself
Respect for others
Respect for property
Respect for authority


All faculty members embrace the highest Christian values and uphold the philosophy and purposes of Florida College Academy.

With a student-teacher ratio of 13 to 1, students learn in a safe, caring environment.

Athletics are important in both physical and social development. Grades 5-9 are encouraged to participate in the extracurricular sports programs. Soccer, basketball, softball and baseball are offered for both boys and girls.

Field trips, projects, banquets and other programs allow students to interact in a variety of social situations.

We believe a school should provide a warm, nurturing environment where respect for others is demonstrated, and where safety is assured. When we speak of the "FCA family", we are emphasizing the close, personal relationships that exist between students, teachers, parents, and administrators. Located in the city of Temple Terrace, one of the safest neighborhoods in Hillsborough County, FCA strives to provide an environment free of weapons, alcohol, drugs, profanity and hostility.

Solid education, spiritual development, social interaction, and safety-compelling reasons to choose Florida College Academy for your child's education. We invite you to come visit our school and observe the warm, caring environment provided for our students. We hope you will become part of the FCA family soon. Your children deserve the best.
