Good Shepherd Lutheran School
School Notes Overview:
At Greenacres Christian Academy we lift students to new levels of learning. Our goal is to serve families through education. The objective of GCA is to teach children how to live and to equip them for success. The Bible verse admonishes adults to train up a child in the way he should go. GCA is an extension of the home in training young people. The school staff works closely with parents/guardians to train the whole child. Attendance at GCA is a privilege and not a right. The goal of this school is to train youth of every ability in the highest principles of moral character, self-discipline, individual responsibility, personal integrity, and good citizenship. GCA stands, without apology, for high standards of morality and wisdom....
