Our teachers, support staff and administration nurture and guide our students as they develop through childhood to become Christian leaders in our city, state and world.
We teach our students to have a missional outlook on the world. We reach out to our community, and our students learn the value of ministering to those around them and those beyond our walls.
From six weeks old through 12th grade, there is a place at BGCA for all.
Along with our families, BGCA is a place of growth where we live our motto: "Informing the mind, Shaping the Heart, Serving the World for Jesus Christ.".

At BGCA, we strive to teach our students the principle of H.E.A.R.T.:
Honor God: Matthew 22:37 Jesus replied, "Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your should and with all your mind."
Excellence: Colossians 3:23 Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for human masters.
Accountability: James 1:22 Do not merely listen to the word, and so deceive yourselves. Do what it says.
Respect: Matthew 22:39 - Love your neighbor as yourself.
Testimony: Matthew 5:16 In the same way, let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in Heaven.

BGCA is a great school filled with loving, caring teachers who go above and beyond to ensure that students receive the best education. The small class size allows teachers to spend extra time with each student. Our daughter has grown as both a student and a Christian at BGCA. We love it!
