Our private, Christian school in downtown Charleston puts students just steps away from some of our country and state’s most important historical sites, and campus visitors are invited to explore the South of Broad area that surrounds our facilities. The James Island campus boasts first-rate athletic facilities and fully-equipped classrooms, all of which is nestled on a 40-acre parcel of land and bordered by a serene live oak forest.  

Visitors to either campus will have the opportunity to tour the school, meet teachers and students, and experience classes. On any given day, visitors might watch students measure the density of matter in science class, create self-portraits in art, or facilitate a Socratic seminar in English class. Visitors can also meet and interact with our faculty, each of whom holds mastery in his or her subject area and excels in integrating the Christian faith and academics. 

While visiting either campus, visitors will learn about our competitive sports teams, highly-regarded arts programs, and after-school activities and programs. Visitors will also receive information about First Baptist School’s spiritual life and the integration of faith and academics.
