School Notes
MISSION
At Grace Christian Academy, we emphasize Christ in everything
and provide our scholars with a superior education, laying the
foundation for success in this life and the next.
VISION
We want our scholars to make a Christ-guided impact in this
world. We strive for excellence in Christian education and
community outreach.
Why Does GCA exist?
At Grace Christian Academy, we believe that Jesus Christ is our
Lord and Savior and that he commanded us to share the good news
with all people (Matthew 28:19) and train children in the way they
should go so that when they are old they do not depart from it
(Proverbs 22:6).
How does GCA live out its purpose?
We achieve our purpose by integrating God's Word into every
aspect of our curriculum, creating a culture where scholars and
staff see Christ in everything and follow his example while
providing opportunities for scholars to grow in all areas of
life.
What does GCA offer?
Our school offers a rigorous academic program to prepare
scholars for high school. It includes the core subjects recognized
by the public education system and courses in Bible history and
doctrine. GCA is blessed with a diverse student body and committed
to a low student-to-faculty ratio which gives scholars individual
instruction and attention. We also provide co-curricular
activities, such as athletics, fine arts, exploratory classes, and
service projects to prepare students for all areas of life. Our
graduates go on to thrive in both private and public schools,
including Advanced Placement (AP) and International Baccalaureate
(IB) programs.
