HOW DOES FPD IMPROVE LIVES?
Focused on strong academics, STEM, an
extensive fine arts programs and ath-
letic opportunities, FPD concentrates
on whole-child development with a
Christ-centered foundation. Ultimately,
students discover their God-given poten-
tial to serve others rather than consume
for self. FPD students then improve their
communities because of this servant-lead-
ership mindset. This mindset is the only
way to change the world for the long-term.
WHAT ARE YOU MOST EXCITED
ABOUT IN OUR COMMUNITY?
I am most excited about the impact that
our FPD alumni are having on the Macon
community and our world. We have many
young, Godly leaders who call Macon
home and are influencing our community
in the medical, legal, educational, arts and
engineering communities. More impor-
tantly, I meet so many FPD graduates who
are incredible parents to their children.
Ultimately, it is about creating a gener-
ation of servant-minded believers who
create a generation that is like-minded.
WHAT ARE YOU MOST EXCITED
ABOUT FOR 2021?
We have a great deal of plans in the works
for how we can continue to build on our
foundation, serve more families and serve
our community. Likewise, we are in the
process of creating a strategic plan that
will guide our school's progress in the
years to come.
2021 Live Well
