the town. A further name

change became necessary when

the town’s mail was consistently

mishandled and often sent to

Columbia, South Carolina. Mr.

Melvin Watkins persuaded the

town to adopt the name

“Ramseur” in honor of

Confederate Major General

Stephen D. Ramseur under

whom Watkins had served in the

Civil War.

Today the town has 1,400

residents, 8 churches in the

town limits (32 within a 5 mile

radius), 9 restaurants, 59

businesses, 12 industrial plants,

and 4 schools including Faith

Christian School.

A BRIEF HISTORY

Affiliations

HISTORY OF THE SCHOOL

Faith Baptist Church was

established in January of 1965

with 27 charter members. One

burden that weighed on the

hearts of the charter members

was the need for Christian

education in Randolph County.

The church incorporated in

order to make the preparations

to establish a school. Under the

direction of Faith’s first pastor,

Rev. Richard Gray, the school

began operating in September of

1968. Faith Christian School was

one of the first Christian schools

in North Carolina’s modern

Christian school movement.

In the early years, the school

experienced multiple leadership

changes. In the first twelve years

of the school’s existence there

were nine administrator changes

until Bill Hohneisen (BJU class of

1969) was hired from among the

faculty to guide the school in

1981. Over two decades later,

Faith has experienced solid,

consistent and healthy growth.

The school presently employs 43

faculty and staff people, including

28 teachers from grades 3K to

12. Longevity in personnel is a

hallmark at Faith to which only

the Lord Jesus Christ can be

credited.

HISTORY OF THE TOWN

The motto of the Town of

Ramseur, North Carolina is “The

Finest Little Town in the

World.” First settled by the

Catawba Indians, William Allen

purchased land in the area

following the Revolutionary

War.

In 1840, the Allen land began to

be sold as small lumber and

cotton mills began to appear

along the Deep River, which

runs through the town.

Originally called Allen’s Falls, the

town’s name became Columbia

after Columbia Manufacturing

Company built a cotton mill in

Gospel Light, Berean, Hilltop,

Cramerton, Wake, Raleigh

association’s activities including

We are on the web:


FAITH CHRISTIAN SCHOOL’S

COMPUTER PHILOSOHPY

We respect the right of some Christian schools to advocate the minimal use of

computers in the Christian educational process. We do understand the dangers of the

Internet and the cost of maintaining computers.

At Faith we believe that the computer is a tool to be used to its fullest capacity. Over

the years, FCS has developed an entire 16 acre campus that is networked to a Windows

2003 server. Some of the buildings are connected via fiber optics. We use School

Dynamics Software which allows our teachers to be 100% computerized for lesson

plans, gradebook, taking lunch orders, communicating with parents via e-mail,

communicating with each other via announcement module, attendance, and discipline.

Our software also uploads this information to the Worldwide Web where parents have

constant access to their child’s information. Teachers have a networked computer at

their desks for their convenience.

Each student and teacher are licensed to use Office 365 online with unlimited storage is a

personal One Drive for Business account. Students who are thirteen years and older are

entitled to download the entire Office 2013 Suite to up to fifteen devices: five copies on

desktops or laptops; five copies on tablets; five copies on Smartphones. As the year

progresses, our students are continually learning who business in done in the electronic

world and should be well suited to compete.

Our older students are also afforded the opportunity to be trained in using the

Professional version of InDesign. This is the program that is used to compile the

yearbook, but each student is given an opportunity to learn the basic of this powerful

program.

The PURPOSE of Faith Christian School: Glorifying God.

The VISION of Faith Christian School: Educating and Training Servant Leaders for the Kingdom of God using God’s Word as the guide.

The MISSION of Faith Christian School: How we are seeking to fulfill the PURPOSE and VISION (The framework for the biblical ideas):

The PILLARS of our MISSION (The SPIRITUAL Dimension of life): We seek to teach each student that he/she should be

actively involved in (3) basic spiritual activities in church and in his/her private life:

WORSHIP (personal & corporate), LEARNING (personal & corporate) and CARING (focusing on God & neighbors).

The PRINCIPLES of our MISSION (The SOCIAL Dimension of life): We seek to teach each student the 7 Basic Principles

outlined in the Institute of Life Principles as a biblical framework for dealing with the normal social issues of life:

DESIGN, AUTHORITY, RESPONSIBILITY, MORAL FREEDOM, OWNERSHIP, SUFFERING, SUCCESS.

The PRACTICES (The PHYSICAL Dimension of life): We seek to teach each student 7 Habits advocated by businessman

Stephen R. Covey as a framework for handling everyday matters:

INITIATE, PLAN, PRIORITIZE, NEGOTIATE, COMMUNICATE, SYNERGIZE, RENEW
