School Notes Overview:
Grace Christian Academy, a ministry of Grace Church, is a fully accredited, interdenominational Christian school serving students in PreK through 12th grade. Since 1994, students from southwest Georgia and north Florida have received a quality education that is not only academic, but also from a Biblical worldview. The instructional program focuses on training the whole child mind, body, and spirit. As a ministry of Grace Church to the local communities, Grace Christian Academy is an extension of parental efforts to educate their children mentally, physically, socially, and spiritually in an excellent, Christ-centered manner. Working closely with parents, our primary goals are to assist each child in: achieving their highest academic potential; developing sound Christian work habits and character traits; and growing in their personal knowledge of God in a loving, nurturing environment. The philosophy of education for Grace Christian Academy is set on a Judaeo-Christian understanding of man, based on the principles of the inspired Word of God. At Grace, education is understood to be a life-long venture which should engage the whole person – mentally, physically, socially, and spiritually equipping them to live full and meaningful Christ centered lives....
