Friendship Christian School was named one of the top 10 private high schools in Wake County, according to Niche. The list, released in the Triangle Business Journal earlier this month, also showed FCS as one of the most affordable.
“We’re grateful we can offer quality education with a distinctly Christian worldview,” said David McClain, head of school. “Here, our students grow in character and academics, and we provide families a Christian community that’s affordable and rooted in faith.”

The only reason you should send your kids to Friendship Christian School is if you want your children to be taught and led by faculty who love Jesus as much as they love your kids. I have had 2 children graduate from FCS and both were accepted into UNC Chapel Hill and NC State. Better than that, however, both children developed their Christian faith and saw God on display daily in the faculty. This school is a true partner to a Christian home.
Instruction compliments what we’re teaching the kids at home. It is a true partnership and we’re proud to be a part of it.
Friendship is the key word that comes to mind when I think of our time at FCS. We spent 7 years there and our ENTIRE FAMILY was blessed with life-long relationships as a result of being a part of this school. We found FCS families to be of a high caliber with Jesus at the center of their homes. The teachers and staff reflected attributes of Christ by being patient, kind, encouraging, and caring. Our kids had some learning differences which allowed them access to the Specialized Learning Center. Being a part of the SLC gave them extra time on tests and access to special teachers that would re-teach or clarify information that was taught during their regular class. Our kids were encouraged, supported and challenged to try harder and do more than what they thought was achievable.
