Friends Community School: Upcoming Admissions Events
Exploring school options for next year?
Get to know Friends Community School. Friends Community School is a Kindergarten through 8th Grade Quaker progressive school that engages and inspires young children through adolescence. Located on 17 acres in College Park, MD, just adjacent to Greenbelt National Park, FCS offers a diverse, welcoming, and inclusive community, a commitment to educating the whole child, and a curriculum that emphasizes child-centered and hands-on learning. At FCS, students are respected as individuals, childhood is celebrated, and learning is experiential, relevant, and meaningful. FCS students are well on their way to becoming lifelong learners, courageous risk-takers, and joyous peacemakers who matriculate to rigorous independent, parochial, and public magnet schools.
If you are interested in considering FCS for your child, join FCS students, parents, teachers, and administrators for an upcoming Admissions Open House to get to know the school further.
