In the spring of 1965, a few parents felt that the education of their children should be of a higher quality. After much dedication and sacrifice, Fayette Academy began in the fall of 1965 with one hundred students in grades 1 through 8. Building additions since that time have been gymnasium, additional classrooms, kindergarten, band hall, library and administration building. Fayette Academy now graduates approximately 55 seniors each year. Fayette Academy boasts of a complete physical plant and a curriculum that challenges students seeking quality education in both mind and body.
Most Fayette students continue their formal education after graduation.
Fayette Academy has among its graduates students who have achieved outstanding success in numerous colleges and universities. Fayette graduates have taken their places in society as productive, well-rounded citizens in many areas. Fayette Academy ranks high in achievement scores on national and local tests. This progress has only been accomplished by the faithful and devoted parents and students who have determined that no effort is too great to provide a superior educational opportunity. The Board of Directors is most grateful to the people who have given so generously of their time, money, and talents.
