We're preparing to welcome our first class of scholars for Fall 2027. Here's what to expect—and how to stay in the loop until we begin accepting applications.
We begin accepting applications in tiers, honoring our roots in the Li’l Scholars and Fincastle Baptist Church communities before opening to the public. Applying is the first step. Enrollment is confirmed once your application is accepted.
Current Li’l Scholars Preschool families are invited to apply first.
We then begin accepting applications from FBC family members.
We then begin accepting applications from the wider community.
Students must meet the following age requirements by September 30 of the enrolling school year:
Additional grade placements are determined based on age, previous educational experience, academic readiness, and assessment results.
Students and their families will be responsible for following all applicable Virginia homeschool requirements, including submitting a Notice of Intent (NOI) to their local school division to notify them that their child will be homeschooled.
Fincastle Classical Scholars is designed as a partnership with homeschooling families, providing families with a high-quality classical education through a hybrid model. Families maintain their role as the primary educators while partnering with Fincastle Classical Scholars for in-person instruction, academic support, community, and enrichment.
We begin accepting applications in tiers on November 9. Join our interest list and we'll keep you updated as your tier opens.
