Our 8th graders are off on the annual south Louisiana trip! Their first stop was the State Capitol in Baton Rouge where they were met by State Representative, Thomas Pressly. Mr. Pressly is a true Patriot as he is a FBCS alum and now parent. He shared with our students how his involvement with Student Council at FBCS sparked his interest in politics. Thank you, Mr. Pressly, for your time and for sharing your passion for our state and community with our students!

Due to internet issues from the recent storms, we are sad to share we will not be able to live stream the FBCS Family Easter Chapel.

Jesus said... “I am the resurrection and the life. The one who believes in me will live, even though they die; and whoever lives by believing in me will never die. Do you believe this?” John 11:25-26

Our middle school students recently had the opportunity to take a trip to Washington D.C. The students and several parents spent 4 full days touring the city. Students visited the White House, Mount Vernon, presidential monuments, and memorials. Our students saw the very flag Francis Scott Key watched as he penned our National Anthem. They also viewed the original U.S. Constitution, learned to locate fallen soldiers on the Vietnam Wall, observed the Changing of the Guards at Arlington Cemetery and so much more. Thank you, Coach Speir, for bringing history to life for our students!

Patriot Pals in K4 and 4th grade visited last week as the 4th graders shared their nativity scenes with the K4 kids!!

The FBCS 5th graders were able to continue a tradition in chapel with a spontaneous nativity. They brought the story to life as Mrs. Meredith read the Christmas story from the book of Luke.

Last week was all about dinosaurs! First graders were measuring, reading about dinosaurs, and digging like a paleontologist!

The FBCS Fellowship of Christian Athletes hosted a prayer rally for the girls basketball players today as both the 6th grade and 8th grade teams head to the private school championships tonight.

The games are at 6 PM and 8 PM at Loyola College Prep. Thank you to Kari Turner, FCA sponsor, for helping students with this event.
