School Notes
- School Motto: Educating students in their lifelong journey for the glory of Jesus Christ.
- We believe there is not a better educational value in the area. At FCS, students are challenged to achieve to the best of their ability. They are engaged by professional, loving staff to think and explore. Because Forcey is fully accredited by both the Association of Christian Schools International and the Middle States Association, we have undergone a thorough review of our program to capitalize on its strengths and eliminate its weaknesses.

School Reviews

I am always surprised at how much I enjoy Forcey Christian School. Its students, parents, and the administration are all what I am seeking in a school. The academics are great. The spiritual formation or the discipleship is great for my 1st grader.

Elementary school was fine I guess but... once I got to middle school (especially online) I literally went insane. some of the teachers are just so terrible and I'm confused why they haven't been fired. I do have some good memories though, and some of my closest friends were from this school.
