Welcome to the First Baptist School (FBS) website!
I hope you enjoy visiting our site, and I invite you to visit our school campus to learn more about us. FBS is a K3-12 independent school in downtown Charleston and is best known for three things: our nurturing, Christian environment; our affordable rates; and our highly successful students.
Our students’ successes speak for themselves: every FBS student goes to college. Many graduates attend prestigious universities with academic, fine arts, and athletic scholarships. FBS students are prepared to be successful in a changing and complex world.
Our graduates are easy to recognize: they are smart, well-mannered, respectful of their teachers, appreciative of their family, and active in extra-curricular pursuits. They eagerly contribute to their community and exude confidence. They are successful in whatever they put their minds to. They have formed strong friendships with a positive peer group. They tell their parents that they were happy at FBS, and they come back to share their successes with us.
FBS is steeped in tradition and takes great pride in preparing students for the future. I believe that our students’ successes in the classroom and in life are evidence of our mission to provide academic excellence with a Christian perspective.
