As a dad who embraces Christ-centeredness as the most important dynamic in education, GCA's commitment to the Gospel and sound Biblical teaching is of highest value to me. GCA's commitment to restoring the Church's intellectual tradition through classical instruction drives its outstanding academic program and produces highly educated, respectable, responsible citizens well prepared to enter the college arena. The investments we have made to send our children to GCA have already produced significant returns. There is no better school I can think of to send my kids! Close Quote

Grace's uncompromising commitment to the Gospel and pursuit of excellence in its academics made this the unquestionable home for all of my children. We were seeking a Christian school that was Classical in its approach to teaching and never thought we would find it in Nassau County! Close Quote
