Fort Myers Christian School (FMCS) was established in 1979 by First Assembly of God in Fort Myers, Florida. This picture shows the school as seen from Colonial Boulevard in 1979.

We are very thankful for the leadership of Pastor David Deaton of First Assembly and our first Principal, Pastor Rick Heers, who had the vision to reach Southwest Florida students and families for Jesus Christ through Christian Education.

We are also very thankful for God’s blessing over the years and for all the Principals, Pastors, School Board members, faculty and staff who have dedicated their lives to lead our young people to “become productive citizens in society and impact others for Jesus Christ.”
