Building
The school originally occupied the basement of Living Springs Christian Fellowship (then known as Fellowship Bible Chapel), but in 1996 moved into a series of portable buildings behind Faith Community Baptist Church.[1] In March 2012, they broke ground on what would be their first non-rental location.[5]
