About

Faith Christian Academy is Whitley County’s only interdenominational Christian school, providing excellence in education for children since 1991. Located at State Road 205 and US 30 in Columbia City, Indiana, Faith Christian Academy offers advanced, yet individualized curriculum for preschoolers through eighth grade. God in the classroom, dedicated educators, involved parents, smaller class sizes and specialized attention for each child mean a learning experience unsurpassed in Whitley County.

  • Christian school educators emphasize the worth of every child.
  • Christian school educators openly share the love of Christ with students. They point students toward the Savior of the world, not away from Him.
  • The opposite of Christ-centered education is man-centered education or humanism, declaring man instead of God as the authority for truth.
  • Christian schools attempt to inspire loyalty to the church.
  • Christian school educators attempt to inspire students to love their country and to have respect for civil government.
  • Christian school education equips students with basic academic skills with which to effectively apply themselves to live lives that are useful and productive.
  • Christian school educators are themselves important role models for students. Someone has said, “Ninety percent of what students ultimately retain from their education is what they learn from watching the lives of their teachers.”

Here’s a trivia question for you: On what day of the year is the most pizza eaten by Americans? The answer…Super Bowl Sunday! To help you have the best pizza for this all important day, Faith Christian Academy is again making and selling fresh pizzas! For only $12 you can purchase and take home a 16 inch fresh pizza. (If you get 5 or more they are $11.00 each) And you have your choice of double cheese, pepperoni, pork sausage, or ½ & ½ on a regular crust. “These pizzas have the same great ingredients you will find in a ‘Pizzeria Pizza’, real cheese and all the rest” said Larry Schmoekel, administrator and pizzeria chef. Schmoekel added, “These pizzas are so Italian – you just might need an interpreter to eat one.” You must order your pizza by Wednesday noon January 30th. To place an order, call the school at 248-4872 or see a Faith Christian Academy student. You will also receive information on how to pick up your pizza on Saturday, February 2nd between 9:30 and 1:30. Schmoekel added, “These pizzas freeze well, if wrapped with film, and can be enjoyed at a later date if you choose. This is a truly win-win & EAT situation for all!” Pizza Order Form
