Summer Program
For Ages 3 - 11
Are you looking for a safe, fun, exciting place that your children ages 3 to 11 will love to come to this summer?
Faith Academy’s 9-week Summer Program begins in early June and runs through early August. The Summer Program is filled with arts & crafts, talent shows, weekly chapel services, fun-filled activities in our air-conditioned gym, weekly field trips, and so much more!
Applications for the 2021 Faith Academy Summer Program will be available the first week of April. Register early; space is limited!
Summer Reading Program
For Grades 3 - 6
The summer reading program is designed to challenge, motivate and entertain elementary students in order to encourage life-long reading habits. Research shows that students that regularly read often have a stronger vocabulary, higher test scores, do better in school, and are more prepared to succeed in college.
To learn more, read the summer reading letter for your child’s grade.
