School Notes

Guardian Christian Academy is a ministry dedicated to spiritual and academic excellence.
We use the Accelerated Christian Education curriculum which is designed to give students a more personal and individualized learning experience.

Currently our classrooms are divided into four groups: infants & toddlers, K-3 thru K-5, 1st thru 6th, and 7th thru 12th. We utilize the A.C.E. placement exam to determine where your child should be placed in our curriculum for K through 12th. Our teaching philosophy at Guardian Christian Academy is "character first," the academics will follow. Our goal is to help your child become all that God has created them to be.
