Tuition & Fees
2018-2019
An FBA education is an investment in the future of your child, their value system, spiritual growth, academic readiness, and overall confidence. Tuition not only covers books, curriculum, and school activities, it is the combination of experiences, community, and invaluable Christian Education that FBA students experience every day. We provide our students with the Truth of God's word and grow their potential to Explore, Create, Challenge, and Lead. We look forward to working with you through the admissions process and will help you each step of the way.
