Foundation Christian Academy (FCA) is a private Christian pre-kindergaten through high school located in Valrico, Florida, United States. It was established in 1992. Seffner Christian enrolls over 400 students. Originally co-located in Bell Shoals Church of Christ, the school moved to its current location on the former site of a miniature horse farm on Lithia-Pinecrest road in 2005.[2] In 2016, the school purchased 20 additional acres of land adjacent to the existing 6.5 acre site. A gymnasium will be completed in the fall of 2016.[3]

Athletics

The school's athletic teams are referred to as the Panthers. FCA has competed in the FHSAA since 2008 and fields teams in basketball, cross-country, soccer, and volleyball. By 2020 the school plans to add football, flag football, and track and field.[3] The school also hosts the Tony Saladino III Baseball Academy.[4]
