Grace Academy provides a distinctly Christian education, using the classical methodology and curriculum. Because we recognize that all knowledge comes from God, we are committed to integrating the truth of Scripture into every aspect of the program and to training children to think biblically about every area of life. Because we recognize that God expects the very best from His people, we are committed to high academic quality. Our Mission is to glorify God by serving parents in providing their children a distinctly Christ-centered, academically excellent, classical education as a foundation for life-long learning.

School Notes:

    • Our Mission is to glorify God by serving parents in providing their children a distinctly Christ-centered, academically excellent, classical education as a foundation for life-long learning. The life-long love of learning is fostered through the three stages of the classical model: grammar, logic and rhetoric. These phases naturally complement a student's God-given intellectual, social and emotional development; a rigorous education can be attained by students who are willing to work hard within the context of their developmental stages.
    • We endeavor to integrate a Biblical worldview into all classroom teaching with the intent that they recognize cultural influences as distinct from biblical, and to be unswayed towards evil by the former. We aim to find them well prepared in all situations, possessing both information and the knowledge of how to use it. We desire they be socially graceful and spiritually gracious; equipped with and understanding the tools of learning; desiring to grow in understanding, yet fully realizing the limitations and foolishness of the wisdom of this world. We desire they have a heart for the lost and the courage to seek to dissuade those who are stumbling towards destruction; that they distinguish real religion from religion in form only; and that they possess the former, knowing and loving the Lord Jesus Christ.

Make Summer a Special Time! Make Summer a Special Time!
If you have children in private school, then you are most likely looking at three months, perhaps even longer, which you must fill with activities of one kind or another during the long summer break.
