First Presbyterian Day School

FPD is a Christ-centered, college-preparatory school, serving grades 3K-12. With an enrollment of over 800 students, First Presbyterian Day School offers a very competitive academic environment with a full range of interscholastic athletic teams and a vibrant fine arts program. Our mission is to "educate and equip students to change the world for God's glory." In order to do this, we believe that students must have the foundation to know how to think critically, make wise decisions, and be servant leaders in their communities. They need the academic skills to excel in college and they need the spiritual foundation to confidently face any challenges that lie in their future. They need to realize their value is found in who their as children of God and that they have God-given talents they can use to make an impact. FPD surrounds students every day with mentors who demonstrate these truths while preparing them to be tomorrow's Christian leaders.
