read moreThe Brim family chose FRA for their rising freshman last year. Now that they are a year (and a couple of months) in, they describe their experience in the admission process and their thoughts on the decision they made. I've been here for 35 years, and I've become like family with my coworkers and coaching staffs and built lifelong relationships with students as I've watched them grow up. Over time, your roots grow deeper and deeper, and there is nothing that can replace that. Almost everything I do now can be traced back to life lessons that began at FRA.

Service and Missions
read moreAt FRA, we believe service has an incredible power to transform lives - both those whom we serve as well as our own - and service life is woven into all parts of our school. Students have the opportunity to serve others locally within our community and the greater Nashville area and globally through mission trips, and we hope these experiences will develop skills, leadership qualities, and passion for others that will last long after graduation. The Center for Philanthropic Studies organizes a large part of the local community service, coordinating Service Saturday events and other service opportunities for clubs and teams.

Over the next two weeks, the 9th Grade Advisories will be collecting supplies that will help benefit one of our partner ministries, American Caribbean Experience. ACE is an ministry in St. Mary's, Jamaica that seeks to meet the basic needs of their communities through education, healthcare, enterprise, and discipleship. We've had the opportunity to send 5 mission teams from FRA to serve in Jamaica over the years and look forward to serving them this year remotely.
