GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

My experience at FCAC has been an enriching and very interesting experience. The academics are rigorous and have definitely challenged me as a student. I like how students that want to be academically challenged and get incredible opportunities to pursue higher education can come here free of cost. One thing that has not been so good for me personally is administration involvement. My senior thesis book spoke on a controversial topic however, it was one of things that affects us directly (especially young women) and I felt like as an almost adult, I should be able to speak on this topic to other adults. With advocacy from my teachers, I was able to do my book but I was forced to add an entire other book that I never read which was challenging to say the least. I don't think admin should be censoring topics because controversial novels such as mine (Lolita by Vladimir Nabokov) shouldn't be censored but rather talked about so we can learn from such stories and protect others.

The school is like a Christian school, but without the label. There are constant references to events in Christianity, which make it a bit difficult for me (a Muslim student) to follow along

I highly regret going here instead of a normal school because of the hefty amount of homework and the fact that this school has given me anxiety throughout the three years I went to it, now I am going to a public high school and I have never been happier

My spouse and I moved our oldest daughter to CCA from a nearby LISD middle school approximately four months ago and we, as well as our daughter, feel absolutely blessed to have been able to do so. The course structure at CCA is much more focused than what she was offered at her previous school and i...
