FOR THE CHILDREN, BY THE PEOPLE.

"Thank you Free State Academy for the mission you are on! As a homeschool family that was faced with a need to put our children in school we were so thankful to find FSA. The transition out of homeschool was made easy. Not only have our kids felt welcomed and thrived in school but as parents, any questions and concerns have been adequately addressed and with an open invitation to join any Chapel sessions or classes if needed.

FSA not only welcomed our family but created an environment that made my children feel as if they were with family. We are looking forward to another year of learning at Free State Academy!"
