Gramercy Christian School vs. St. Egbert Catholic School

At Gramercy Christian School we believe that the school is an extension of the home, and there must be close cooperation if education is to be successful.

This guide is intended to foster that by providing a better understanding of the school program and ways in which parents, teachers, and the administration work together to rear children "in the nurture and admonition of the Lord".

The philosophy of Gramercy Christian School is rooted in the belief that the basis of knowledge is faith in the Word of God, that God and His Word cannot be separated, and that they focus on the Lord Jesus Christ.

God has revealed Himself in His creation, in His Son, and in His written Word -- the Bible.

If Christian education is to transmit true knowledge, it must be education that is Word-centered.

This parish school School opened in 1956. It has a quality academic program with high standards and high expectations for all students, an orderly and supportive environment that is conducive to learning, and a robust faith community with a clear Catholic identiy.

Of interest to the founders is the tremendous amount of learning that goes on each year in young children.

It is exciting for us to see all the important loving and guiding experiences of infancy incorporated into the children's development.

We believe we have an opportunity to influence much of what will happen to children as they go through elementary school, junior high school and on into adult life.

It also is a real challenge to our staff to provide an environment that will encourage maximum development for children, as positive experiences during the early year’s lead to much greater success in the future.
