In preparation for the new school year, parents and students are invited to our annual “Back-to-School Night.” It gives students and families the opportunity to meet teachers and visit classrooms. Also, you are encouraged to bring your child’s school supplies at this time. (It will help to ease the load on the first day of school.) This year, “Back-to-School Night” will be held on Tuesday, August 18, from 5:30-6:30 pm.
There will be a FCS Info Fair (Held in the Elementary gym)

Walk-A-Thon 2026
Our first fundraiser for the school year is the FCS WALKATHON. Join us on Saturday, September 26, 2026 at the Dixon Bike Path Washington St. entrance at 9:00 am for this exciting opportunity to support Faith Christian School.
The walk will begin at 9:00 am. We will meet briefly at the entrance to the bike path prior to the walk. There will be a time of prayer and a drawing for door prizes for those in attendance prior to walking. The 1 mile marker signifying the turn around will be marked. When you have finished the 2 mile course you are free to go. Water and snacks will be provided. You do not need to be present to participate in the fundraiser. Just walk 2 miles on your own. In the case of inclement weather, a text alert notification will be sent by 8:15 am.

Picture Day Preschool 4 & K-12th Grade
2026-09-30
Along with the individual photos, we will be taking a class photo, so it’s important for your child to be at school on picture day so they are included in the photo. We will take Pre K and Elementary photos in the morning and MS/HS in the afternoon. The pictures will be used in the 26-27 yearbook so dress your best.
Ordering info from Verdant Photographer coming soon.
