Frederick Christian Academy is now in its 45th year of providing quality academic instruction in a loving and positive environment. Smaller class sizes and student/teacher ratio help to ensure adequate individual attention, as well as helping to create a nurturing family environment. Our students go on to further their education or enter the workplace equipped with higher order thinking skills, as well as discernment and communication skills. The mission of Frederick Christian Academy is to assist parents in educating their children in accordance with Biblical principles by providing high quality spiritual and academic programs while encouraging students to live Christ-centered lives.

Friends Meeting School is a small, college preparatory, non-profit, K-12 school, which enriches and fortifies the mind, body, and spirit of all in our community within a diverse academic environment dedicated to universal Quaker values. Our dynamic experiential education empowers students to realize their full potential and gain the courage to let their lives speak.

The Mission of Lucy School is to provide a student-centered, arts enriched program that will stimulate, nurture, and enhance the intellectual, emotional, physical, social, aesthetic and creative development of children, ages three through eighth grade. By example, we nurture a love and respect for community, family, nature and the environment.

We do this within a small and familiar environment on a 17-acre farm setting that integrates the elements and aesthetics of nature into a rigorous and developmentally appropriate learning process.
