Thank you to LifeSouth for providing the team of medical professionals who collected the blood.

ACSI Accreditation

The ACSI accreditation visit is finished. After 3 days of examining every detail of Flint Hill Christian School the 8 person team presented an oral report that was very favorable. There were several recommendations and a host of commendations. The first words spoken were “we were super impressed.”

On June 2, 2009, we received word from Mr. Bob Hodges that the commission has granted us full seven year accreditation status. This recognition will make transfer between schools and going to college easier for our students. Thank you to all who worked long hours to demonstrate our excellence in education status.
