As a college preparatory school, First Baptist School is strongly committed to helping each student with college planning. Our full-time college counselor works closely with students throughout their high school careers, not only ensuring that students are on track to graduate with college credit but that they are prepared to enter into an appropriate field of study. The college counselor also assists students with the application and financial aid processes and serves as liaison with college admissions offices around the world.
