- Grace Christian Academy students are taught how to learn and how to interrelate and examine all knowledge as part of a larger whole defined by Christian truth. All learning is a unified effort and points to glorify God.
- Our Christian school utilizes a classical approach to learning known as the Trivium. This time-proven methodology is composed of three interrelated phases that correspond with a child's developmental stages of learning. These phases also correspond with the Biblical categories of knowledge, understanding, and wisdom, thus enabling students to easily master subjects at the appropriate age.
- Grace Christian Academy offers a full range of curriculum. From Kindergarten to 8th grade. The fall of 2010 is our planned date to open our high school.
Some highlights are:
- An academically rigorous education grounded in Scripture with a Biblical worldview
- Low student to teacher ratio
- Systematic phonics instruction begins in kindergarten
- Cursive penmanship begins in 2nd grade
- Latin instruction begins in 3rd grade
- Formal Logic instruction begins in 8th grade
- Advanced math, grammar and writing curricula
