Students in grades 2nd-8th grade utilize "PACE" curriculum provided by Accelerated Christian Education (ACE).

Our PACEs have taken the conventional textbook and divided it into bite-size, achievable worktexts that allow your student(s) to master each chapter before moving on to new material. PACEs utilize Hands-on social studies and science projects, creative writing and character development, continued building of fine motor skills particularly in lower levels, lessons are presented with exciting illustrations and written to ensure comprehension, fun facts, self tests to help the student/teacher determine readiness for final testing, and supervised tests to measure mastery of material studied.

Question 8

What if my child(ren) want to play sports that you do not currently offer?

It is our desire to provide extracurricular activites that are fun and competitive for our middle and high school students. Unfortunately, it is not always feasible, nor is the interest high enough within the student body, to participate in every sport. If your child(ren) has an interest in a specific sport that is not offered by FLA, speak with Pastor Glen, FLA's Athletic Director about alternate options. Our desire is to help your child become involved in the sport of their choice.
