Mission & Values
Our Mission
Dallas First Baptist Academy provides a Christ-centered and biblically-integrated college preparatory education to develop the next generation of Christian servant leaders for the glory of God.
Saints Values
It is true of both institutions and individuals – those that tend to endure operate on a set of core values, constants that define who they are and guide how they act and react. First Baptist Academy has established such a set of core values. These values define our institution. But we are more than just an institution, we are individuals – teachers, staff members, moms, dads, and students. As adults, we will work to model Saints Values and instill them in our students, creating an ever-widening group of Dallas First Baptist Academy alumni who have Saints Values as constants in their lives.
