How might your learning in a Christian environment at FCS positively affected you?

Being surrounded by people grounded in Christian morals definitely saved some of my high school experience – especially in the case of mercy relating to late homework. 

Has there been a teacher at FCS that has impacted your faith, education, or personal growth in a significant way? If you were to say thank you to this person, what might you say? 

Mr. Smith, you’ve displayed an incredible kindness toward me since I first came here. I know that anything I say to you will be taken seriously and graciously.  Thank you for teaching and helping me for the past four years.  You will be missed. 

What might it mean to you to have attended both a classical and Christian school?

It pushed me to work hard – I think I learned something about myself.

Don’t become obsessed with school; life outside of school exists and it is important to enjoy it.

What are your plans for after graduation?

I will be attending Savannah School of Art and Design and studying graphic design.
