Clubs & Organizations

Extracurricular Activities

In addition to many athletic and fine arts options, Foundation Academy is pleased to offer numerous opportunities for students to get involved and pursue other interests outside of the school day. There are various clubs, organizations, societies and activities for the students to consider, from student government to drama club and nearly everything in between!

Christians in Service

Christians in Service is a club where students organize different events to help the community. For example, food drives, Haiti shoe box drive, letters to military and nursing homes. It’s an opportunity for students to serve as Jesus served us.

Cornhole Club

Debate Team

Within Debate/Philosophy club we attempt to identify topics that involve ethical dilemmas, differing opinions, and or current events that are either openly or formally discussed. By doing this we both refine our own beliefs by hearing differing opinions, while also promoting critical thinking and logic/reasoning skills.

Fellowship of Christian Athletes (FCA)

Fellowship of Christian Athletes: Our goal is to impact our campus for Christ through the influence of athletes and coaches. We also want to help athletes grow and mature as young men and women of God who honor Christ in sports and in their lives as a whole. Athletics creates a unique bond between teammates, which allows us to have deep conversations with others. We want to make it a priority to talk about Christ in those conversations, start team Bible studies, etc. FCA meetings are called “Huddles” and they are open to all student athletes at FA. We typically will have an opening game, and then we will have someone share their testimony or a short devotional (sometimes these are students, sometimes outside speakers, coaches, etc.).

Lions Club

LIONS Club (Leaders Involved Offering Necessary Service) is not just part of a school club; they are serving a ministry that provides a fun, safe and loving environment to the youngest children who come each week to learn about the love of Jesus at our satellite campus, Foundation Worship. LIONS Club members serve the church on Fridays after school by setting up classrooms for preschool church service that takes place on Sundays.

Yearbook

Yearbook class covers three main topics: journalism, photography, and layout/design.  However, the skills necessary to produce a yearbook are lifelong skills that are not always covered in a traditional class.  For example, students learn leadership skills, collaboration, creativity, advertising skills, and much more.  Students also figure out how to meet deadlines despite numerous obstacles.  They solve problems on a daily basis, and they learn how to trust each other to help out when needed.  We also celebrate our successes.  Our yearbook has won the National Program for Excellence in Yearbook for the past 3 years! The yearbook at FA is completely student-driven.  The students own the work, and, as an adviser, I simply facilitate.  So, if you’d like to be part of an award winning team, and create a product that leaves a legacy, then you really need to join yearbook at FA.
