About this school
Faith International Academy (FIA) is a Christian international school in Marfori Heights, Davao City, whose purpose is to prepare students to live for God through a Christ-centred education so that their families can serve wherever they are called. It is missionary-friendly and mainly supports Christian ministry families, with students on average from more than 17 countries.
The school's roots go back to Faith Academy in Manila, founded by missionary parents in 1957. A Davao branch opened in the 1980s, and its present campus was dedicated in 1987. In 2008 it merged with Mindanao International Christian Academy to form Faith Academy Mindanao, and in 2014 it became legally independent as Faith International Academy.
FIA has elementary, middle and high school divisions. The high school (Grades 9–12) follows an American-style, college-preparatory curriculum, guided by schoolwide learning results that emphasise critical thinking, self-directed learning, collaboration, communication and stewardship. Weekly chapel, a culture and heritage programme, an Outdoor Education service week and athletics in volleyball, basketball and soccer are part of school life.
