Your Story Could Start Someone Else's

The Power of a Warrior Recommendation
Choosing a school is one of the most important decisions a family makes. Websites, campus tours and admissions events can provide valuable information, but sometimes the most meaningful insight comes from a simple conversation with someone you trust.

A friend. A neighbor. A family from church. A parent whose child already walks the halls of the school you are considering.

At First Baptist Academy, we know the experiences our families share with others are one of the most powerful ways prospective families discover our school. In fact, nearly 4 in 10 families begin exploring FBA after someone they know encourages them to take a closer look. 

It might be a current parent sharing how much their child has grown academically, a family describing what it means for their student to be truly known and loved or a friend explaining the difference it makes to have teachers who invest in a student’s character, intellect and potential.

Those firsthand experiences help prospective parents begin to picture what their own child’s educational journey could look like at First Baptist Academy.

Sharing the FBA Experience
Our current families know FBA in a way no brochure or advertisement ever could. You see the results of the learning taking place in classrooms, cheer from the sidelines, attend chapel, watch friendships form and see your students grow into the uniquely gifted individuals God created them to be.

Through our Rally a Warrior referral program, current FBA families receive a tuition credit when inviting a new family to apply who ultimately enrolls. The new family also receives the same amount off their tuition!

But Rally a Warrior is about more than a referral. It is an opportunity to help another family discover a Christian education rooted in the Truth and a community committed to developing scholars who become active participants in God’s story.

Think about the families already in your life. Is there a neighbor looking ahead to kindergarten? A church family considering a new school? A friend whose middle school student might thrive in a smaller environment? Sometimes, introducing them to FBA can begin with something as simple as, “You should come see our school.” 

Come See FBA For Yourself
This fall, current and prospective families have several opportunities to visit campus, meet our faculty and leadership and learn more about the educational journey at First Baptist Academy.

Never underestimate the impact of sharing why you chose First Baptist Academy and what has made you stay. Sometimes the best journeys begin with a recommendation from someone who has already experienced the difference.
