Greater Houlton Christian Academy has been recognized over the years for our superior academic program, our strong sports teams, unique offerings like our Aerospace Science Lab and Robotics club, and many other areas of excellence.
However, these things are not what makes GHCA unique in our area.
What makes GHCA special is the presence of the Living God.
He is here at the center of everything we do.
We recognize that our students come to us for many different reasons.
When the school year is over, however, our hope that each student can look back and rejoice because within these walls God is about the business of changing lives.
GHCA provides a loving, caring environment that helps develop spiritual and moral values in our young people.
We say "helps", because ultimately it is the parents who are commissioned by God to raise their children.
GHCA operates in partnership with godly parents and area churches to fulfill the Biblical command, "Train a child in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not turn from it.
