Lower School

List of 3 items.

  • Rodeo Day

    For over 28 years, the Lower School P.E. teachers have created fun country-western music routines for each grade to perform for parents and friends. Traditional routines that students look forward to each year, plus new and creative songs and props, make Rodeo Day a special tradition. After the performances, students participate in activities such as rodeo roping and games, a tasting contest and Western Justice.

    We love our grandparents and special friends! The lower school celebration features a book fair and student performances for grandparents and special friends.

  • Grandparents & Special Friends Day

Upper School

List of 7 items.

  • Senior Retreat

    Each August, the senior class enjoys a long weekend for a retreat. The retreat gives seniors the opportunity to build community, strengthen relationships, discover ways to serve and lead and prepare for the final year of upper school. One of the most meaningful retreat traditions includes the students receiving encouraging letters from family and friends.
  • Junior Dedication Ceremony

    The annual Junior Dedication Ceremony is the longest standing tradition at Fort Bend Christian Academy as it began with the first graduating class. It is one of the most anticipated days of the year in the upper school. The ceremony marks the countdown to graduation, as students only have 18 months under their parent's roof before heading off to college, and it also signifies the junior’s transition into leaders of the school. Junior Dedication is a time for faculty to pray for the students, and it is customary for students to receive gifts from their parents such as a Bible, ring or something sentimental to commemorate the day.
  • Eagle Week

    Every spring, FBCA upper school students participate in Eagle Week, a unique opportunity to serve locally or internationally and to meet the physical and spiritual needs of people living thousands of miles away or just down the road.
  • Senior Bike to Breakfast

    For many, Bike to Breakfast is their favorite tradition at FBCA. With the help of the campus police, seniors are safely led through Sugar Land on their bikes. They meet at a host’s home for breakfast together.
  • Graduates Parade

    The Graduates Parade is a relatively new tradition that has garnered a lot of excitement. After taking their class photo, seniors—dressed in their caps, gowns and tassels—parade through the lower and middle school campuses, high-fiving former teachers and young students. This tradition inspires the younger students as they look forward to their own graduation one day, and it also reminds the seniors of where they started, how far they have come and who got them to where they are today.
  • Commencement Ceremony

    The annual Commencement Ceremony celebrates and honors our seniors as they graduate!
  • Lifers

    The term "Lifer" distinguishes students who have attended FBCA from kindergarten through senior year. Lifers exemplify leadership qualities and personify the mission and values of the school. We are especially grateful to families of Lifers who supported the mission of the school for the entirety of their child’s education.
