Fourth Baptist Christian School has a beautiful, fully outfitted facility with credentialed faculty who care about their students' education and spiritual growth. The fine arts and athletic departments are outstanding, and the class sizes are small enough for great personal attention. As a parent of multiple students over the last few years, our family has benefited from the low tuition and scholarships that are subsidized by Fourth Baptist Church and other donors. If you are looking for a solid, Christian educational experience for. your family, check it out!

My wife and I are both alumni as well has having sent our two children through FBCS from kindergarten to graduation. If you are looking for a solid core education (reading, writing, arithmetic), along with a solid Christian education, this is your school. Your students can have a great educational experience including sports, music and more. My daughter played volleyball from 7th grade through high school which included a trip to the MSHSL tournament one year. The facilities are excellent, the location being convenient to those in the western suburbs of Minneapolis.

I have four children in school here, in elementary school and junior high. Wouldn't want them to go anywhere else! Love the teachers, the curriculum is challenging, and my children are developing a biblical world view. My children are involved in the sports and fine arts programs as well. Great facility, great school!

I go to this school and love it! I play clarinet, handbells, and I sing in choir. In fourth grade you can sing in choir, and in fifth grade you can play in band and you play handchimes until seventh grade.
