What is FCCPSA?
The Florida Coalition of Christian Private School Association, Inc. (FCCPSA) was founded and continues to be lead by men and women who believe that parents are responsible to direct the education of their children in all areas of life including academics. From Deuteronomy 6:5-7 and Proverbs 22:6 in the Old Testament to Ephesians 6:4 in the New Testament, God repeatedly gives direction to the parents on the academic, moral and spiritual education of children. Our mission is to encourage and help in the development of the Christian Non-traditional and Traditional Private Schools throughout the State of Florida for those who have chosen to educate their children under the authority of a private school rather than registering their children under the superintendent in their County. It is the parent’s decision where the teaching takes place, whether at the school’s physical location or at the parent’s home.
The FCCPSA is:
- A Florida non-profit corporation
- A statewide support organization for leaders of Christian Non-traditional and Traditional private schools

- The publisher of the FCCPSA Manual for the Christian Non-traditional and Traditional Private Schools
- The publisher of the FCCPSA Manual for the Faith Based Child Care Facilities
- A network of educational and political support
