FCS Athletics
It is our desire that every student attending Flushing Christian School be physically fit. Each class has gym twice a week. We would like our students to understand that daily exercise is a part of a healthy life style.
- Our physical education program involves:
- Stretching
- Calisthenics
- Aerobics
- Team games
- Grades 4-8 also participate in: volleyball, basketball, badminton and wiffleball.
All games and sports activities are designed to teach students sportsmanship and to have students think and strategize. Most important of all is for students to develop good Christian character.
Students in grades 5-8 may also participate in the Flushing Christian School Eagles sports teams if they meet the academic criteria and maintain a conduct grade of B. The Five Spiritual Principles of Athletic Competition are a major focus of our program.
“Do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit, who is in you, whom you have received from God? You are not your own; you were bought with a price. Therefore honor God with your body.” 1 Corinthians 6:19-20
President's Challenge
The President's Challenge is a program that encourages all Americans to make being active part of their everyday lives. Students at Flushing Christian School complete several fitness challenges which the program requires and those who meet the criteria are awarded either the Presidential Certificate or the National Certificate.
