Thank you for your interest in First Baptist Academy (FBA)! We are so excited about the way God has blessed our school and we look forward to what God is doing as we journey toward the future. In the fall of 2002, First Baptist Academy opened with its first ever kindergarten class of 16 students. Since that time, we have grown to over 275 students in grades K-12 and currently hold dual accreditation with ACSI and AdvancED/NCA.

FBA is a ministry of First Baptist Church O'Fallon and as such is governed by the church through the Senior Pastor/Governing Board and the School Administrator. The Statement of Faith found in the FBA Parent Handbook outlines the biblical and spiritual beliefs on which the church and school are founded.

We appreciate your interest in First Baptist Academy and encourage you to seek whatever answers you may need in determining if FBA is the right school for your child. Thank you again for your interest in First Baptist Academy.
