Our Simple Admissions Process

We are honored that you are considering partnering with us for your child’s education. Our goal is to make the admissions process as seamless as possible. Here are the steps to becoming part of our community:

Explore and Discover

We encourage you to explore our website to learn about our unique mission, our E.X.C.E.L. framework, and our academic approach. The best way to understand the American Faith Academy difference is to see it for yourself. We invite you to attend one of our virtual open houses to meet our team and ask your questions in a live setting.

Submit Your Application

Once you are ready, you can complete our simple online application. The application will ask for basic information about your family and your student, as well as your understanding of our statement of faith and educational philosophy and agreement to our code of conduct.

Placement Assessment and Work Samples

To ensure your student is placed in courses at a level where they will thrive and be appropriately challenged, we require submission of recent work samples and completion of placement assessments. This step allows us to meet your student exactly where they are and design a personalized learning path that builds confidence while fostering growth. Our adaptive platform is designed to support students at every level, ensuring they are neither overwhelmed nor under-challenged.

Enrollment and Onboarding

Upon acceptance, you will receive an enrollment packet with everything you need to get started. Our team will walk you through the onboarding process, including setting up your parent and student accounts on our platform and preparing you for a successful start to the school year.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

We know choosing a school is a significant decision. Here are answers to some of the most common questions we receive from prospective families.

What is the deadline for applications?

Although we offer rolling admissions throughout the year, we encourage families to enroll by August 1st to ensure your student can fully enjoy the benefit of the community learning environment from the start. School begins the third week of August, and early enrollment allows for a smooth transition and immediate connection with peers and teachers.

Are there entrance exams?

Yes, we require placement assessments as part of the admissions process. These assessments are not about passing or failing; they are designed to ensure your student is placed in courses and at a level where they will thrive. We want every student to be appropriately challenged without feeling overwhelmed. Our goal is to meet your child exactly where they are and help them grow from that point forward.

Do you accept students with learning differences?

Absolutely. American Faith Academy is designed to meet students where they are, and our adaptive platform is particularly well-suited for students with diverse learning needs. Between our placement process and the personalized pacing of our platform, we can tailor the educational experience to each student’s strengths and challenges.

AFA provides a rigorous, classical Christian education. If your student has the desire to learn, we can provide them with an exceptional education. We believe that every child, regardless of their learning profile, deserves access to a Christ-centered education that cultivates wisdom, virtue, and a love for learning.

What is your statement of faith?

American Faith Academy is grounded in Augustine’s sentiment: “In essentials unity, in nonessentials liberty, and in all things love.” We believe:

The Scriptures, both Old and New Testaments, to be the inspired Word of God, without error in the original writings, the complete revelation of His will for the salvation of men, and the Divine and final authority for Christian faith and life.

In one God, Creator of all things, infinitely perfect and eternally existing in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.

That Jesus Christ is true God and true man, having been conceived of the Holy Spirit and born of the Virgin Mary. He died on the cross, a sacrifice for our sins, according to the Scriptures. Further, He arose bodily from the dead, ascended into heaven, where, at the right hand of the Majesty on High, He is now our High Priest and Advocate.

That the ministry of the Holy Spirit is to glorify the Lord Jesus Christ and, during this age, to convict men; regenerate the believing sinner; and indwell, guide, instruct, and empower the believer for godly living and service.

That man was created in the image of God but fell into sin and is, therefore, lost; only through regeneration by the Holy Spirit can salvation and spiritual life be obtained.

That the shed blood of Jesus Christ and His Resurrection provide the only ground for justification and salvation for all who believe, and only such as receive Jesus Christ are born of the Holy Spirit and thus become children of God.

In the personal and imminent coming of our Lord Jesus Christ and that this “Blessed Hope” has a vital bearing on the personal life and service of the believer.

In the bodily resurrection of the dead: the believer to everlasting blessedness and joy with the Lord; the unbeliever to judgment and everlasting conscious punishment.

Additionally, we believe:

• We believe in one true God—Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. God is the Creator of all things and the sovereign ruler over heaven and earth.

• All people are created equal and in the image of God.

• God made us male and female. Gender corresponds to our God-given sex rooted in divine design.

• Marriage is between one man and one woman.

• All life is sacred, beginning at conception.

• The teaching of God’s truth and virtue is the beginning of wisdom and is the best defense against destructive ideologies.

• The epicenter of a child’s formation is the family. The church, schools, and community exist to serve God and the family.

• The founding ideals of the United States—freedom, equality, liberty, opportunity, and democracy—are essential to teach, model, and preserve.

• Working together advocating for virtuous education is critical for a flourishing society.

How does the flexible schedule at Community Learning Centers work?

American Faith Academy is part of the Excelara Network, a growing network of hybrid schools across the country using the same curriculum and learning platform.
