Elementary

A Christ-centered elementary school seeks to nurture the whole child by integrating biblical truths into every aspect of education. The focus is on spiritual formation, academic excellence, and character development, all through the lens of a Christian worldview. Students are encouraged to grow in their faith, develop a love for learning, and practice kindness and service.

Elementary Class Principles

Biblical Integration Across the Curriculum

  • Every subject, from reading and writing to science and social studies, is infused with biblical truth. Teachers intentionally weave Scripture and Christian principles into lessons, helping students connect academic content with God’s Word.

    A biblical worldview shapes how students understand the world, emphasizing that all knowledge is rooted in God’s truth, fostering a sense of wonder and gratitude for His creation.

  • Spiritual Formation and Character Development

  • Spiritual growth is central, with daily prayer, Bible lessons, and chapel services integrated into the rhythm of the school day. Students are taught foundational Christian values such as kindness, honesty, obedience, and love for others.

    Character education is prioritized, helping students develop Christ-like attitudes and behaviors. Teachers model and encourage traits like humility, forgiveness, and service, guiding students toward a deep, personal faith.

  • Academic Excellence Through a Biblical Lens

  • Students are encouraged to achieve their academic potential as an act of stewardship, understanding that their talents and abilities are gifts from God. The curriculum is designed to challenge students, fostering a love for learning and a commitment to excellence in all subjects.

    Critical thinking, creativity, and problem-solving are emphasized, equipping students to approach academic challenges confidently and with curiosity, while maintaining a biblical perspective on knowledge and wisdom.

  • Developmentally Appropriate Learning

  • The elementary years are a time of significant intellectual, emotional, and social development. The school environment is designed to support this growth with age-appropriate teaching methods that engage students in active, hands-on learning.

    Recognizing each child as uniquely created by God, instruction is differentiated to meet individual learning needs, allowing students to thrive academically while developing confidence and a sense of belonging.

  • Community and Social Growth

  • A Christ-centered school creates a safe, nurturing environment where students are valued and loved. Social development is supported through opportunities for teamwork, friendship-building, and collaboration.

    Teachers encourage a sense of community within the classroom and the school as a whole, emphasizing respect, empathy, and the importance of serving others.

  • Partnership with Families and the Church

  • Education is viewed as a partnership between the school, families, and the local church. Parents are considered vital partners in their child’s education and spiritual development. The school works closely with parents to reinforce biblical principles and foster consistent spiritual growth.

    The local church also plays a significant role, providing support, encouragement, and spiritual nourishment through various programs and involvement.

  • Service Opportunities

  • Even at the elementary level, students are introduced to the concept of missions and service. Simple acts of kindness and local service projects help students understand their responsibility to love and serve others as Christ did.

    By participating in age-appropriate service activities, students begin to develop a heart for missions and learn the value of living out their faith through practical acts of service.

  • Nurturing the Whole Child

  • The focus extends beyond academics to nurturing the emotional, social, and spiritual well-being of each student. Teachers act as role models and mentors, guiding students through the joys and challenges of early childhood with love and grace.

    Activities like art, music, and physical education are seen as important for holistic growth, allowing students to explore their God-given talents and interests while maintaining a balanced, joy-filled life.

    • "Faith Christian Academy since 2016. We learned of Faith through their partnership with the local homeschooling community. We have taken advantage of Faith's part time options which were a great supplement to homeschooling. We are now excited to have our 3 children as full-time students at Faith. We love the Abeka curriculum in the elementary school and the dual credit options for high school are such a great opportunity along with a variety of extracurricular activities. Nothing can compete, however, with the care and guidance given by the teachers and staff at Faith. They share Christ's love with every student and prioritize character and faith development as much as academic success. Thank you, Faith Christian Academy!"

      "Our family found Faith Christian Academy through a Google search after moving to Wausau from out of state. As we transitioned our four children from being homeschooled into a classroom setting, it was very important to us that the class sizes were small. We were also impressed how the administration stressed that while education was important, their top priority is building faith and helping students grow into Christian leaders as they age. The teachers have been committed to keeping connected with us as parents and making sure our children feel encouraged and loved. It feels great to know that our children are receiving a Christ-centered education, being prayed over daily, and that they are developing friendships within the warm family-like environment that is Faith Christian Academy!"

      "In a broken world, we are thankful for a school that will walk alongside our family and help us teach our children Biblical truths. We know that when they leave Faith, our children will have a strong foundation for their faith and be able to share the gospel message with others."

      "We are so thankful for Faith. As a parent, you want to see your children thrive. You want to see them cared for, loved and have a sense of belonging. You want them to love Jesus and others. You want them to learn the truth of scripture and how to apply that in their life. As a parent you have opportunities to help them with these things, but you need others to come alongside you and help in this goal. Faith Christian Academy has provided exactly that for the past decade with our family and does that now more than ever. A solid Christian education is priceless. A faith family with Godly leadership, teachers and staff that love on your kids and point them closer to Christ every day is invaluable. We are so grateful and blessed to be a part of the FAITH family!”
