A Message from the Athletic Director
Welcome to the Home of the Eagles, and welcome to another exciting year of Eagles Athletics!
I am proud to be in my third year as the Assistant Superintendent of Athletics at Faith Family
Academy. I am very fortunate to be a member of a community complete with Academy Quality,
Student Success beyond the classroom, a positive district culture, and a dynamic creative
organizational environment that surrounds our FFA family. It is a true honor to welcome you to an
environment that cultivates academic and athletic accomplishment while embracing Excellence,
Discipline, and Sportsmanship.
Faith Family Academy fields boys and girls athletic programs, all the way from Pre-K to 12th grade.
We have over 500 students participating in our athletic program each year.
The Faith Family Academy Athletics mission focuses on educating, empowering and inspiring every
student-athlete for lifelong success, and I have always been a strong believer that interscholastic
athletics is an immense part of excelling in an education setting. Our student-athletes push for
excellence in their sports. They work hard to fulfill their potential in the classroom and on the
playing surfaces, and have become leaders and role models within our school community and
beyond. Our Superintendent, Administrators, Faculty and Staff are committed to get the most out
of our student-athletes.
I work with a winning team, from the Superintendent to those working on the courts and fields.
We have passionate coaches who care and have the expertise to coach at the highest level.
Our coaches, athletic department, and myself are always happy to visit with you about our athletic
programs and answer any questions you may have. Please don’t hesitate to contact myself and
coaches.
TOGETHER WE FLY!
Respectfully,
Marcus Canonico JD,
Assistant Superintendent of Athletics
