Welcome to First Baptist Christian School

For 40 years, First Baptist Christian School has served as a beacon of Christ-centered education in Lafayette, LA, partnering with families to nurture both academic and spiritual growth. Founded in 1986, our school equips students from PreK3 through 12th grade with a strong foundation in Biblical truth while fostering excellence in academics, leadership, and character.

We understand that choosing the right school for your child is one of the most important decisions you will make as a parent. Our commitment goes beyond traditional academics—through small class sizes, dedicated teachers, and a curriculum that integrates faith into every subject, we create an environment where students are challenged academically, encouraged spiritually, and prepared for lifelong success. Students engage in hands-on learning, athletics, fine arts, and service opportunities while growing in a loving, Christ-centered community.

At First Baptist Christian School, our mission is to partner with parents to equip students to reach their full potential—academically, socially, and spiritually—so that they graduate confident, prepared, and grounded in their faith, ready to serve God and impact their world.
