Our Leadership

Welcome to Faith Community Academy!

For over 30 years, God has faithfully built something special at Faith Community Academy.

Founded in 1992 by Faith Community Church, FCA was established to give Tucson families more than just a strong education—we also set out to nurture deep spiritual formation and a distinctly Christian worldview.

Because let’s be honest—what good is knowledge without wisdom? And what good is wisdom without Jesus?

Our heart is that every child who walks through our doors will develop a lifelong love for learning, not just any learning, but a Christ-centered perspective that shapes how they think, live, and love.

These early years? They matter. They’re sacred. And at FCA, we believe childhood is a gift to be protected and nourished, not rushed, not overlooked.

That’s why our classrooms are places of joy and discovery, where truth is taught, and character is formed. We partner with parents. We lean on the strength of our church family. And we pray daily for God’s blessing over every student, every family, and every teacher.

Because this isn’t just a school—it’s a ministry. It’s His school. And our mission is His: to raise students who walk in faith, serve with love, and pursue academic excellence—for the glory of God.

And we believe the best is still ahead.

Principal's Message

Dear Parents, Students, and Friends,

It is a joy and an honor to welcome you to Faith Community Academy—a place where Christ is at the center of all we do, and where education is rooted in both academic excellence and spiritual growth. At FCA, our mission is to partner with families to raise up students who know and love God, pursue truth, and live out their faith with courage and compassion.

We believe that every child is uniquely created by God, with purpose and potential. Our dedicated staff is committed to nurturing each student’s heart and mind, helping them grow in wisdom, character, and confidence. Through a strong academic foundation, biblical integration in every subject, and a safe, loving environment, we prepare students not just for college and careers, but for lives of faithful service to Christ.

Educating the next generation is a calling we take seriously and joyfully. Whether you are already part of our FCA family or are exploring the possibility of joining us, I encourage you to visit and experience the Christ-centered community that makes Faith Community Academy a special place.

Blessings in Christ,
Mrs. Lydda Castro
