Friends Community School Events

Now in its fourth decade, Friends Community School is a K-8 Quaker progressive school that thoughtfully guides young children through adolescence, instilling compassion, curiosity, and confidence. Located on 17 acres in nearby College Park, FCS offers a diverse and inclusive community, a commitment to educating the whole child, and a curriculum that emphasizes inquiry-based and hands-on learning. FCS students are 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 event to learn more about the school’s academic program, Quaker values, “green” campus, and application process.
