2. Academic
Achievement
At Grace Community Christian
School (GCCS) we provide an
exemplary educational
program rooted in Biblical
principles for pre-school
through 8th grade students.
Comprehensive curricular and
co-curricular programs provide
an emphasis in core subject
areas preparing students for
the high school of their
choice, while enhancing
academic achievement with
elective opportunities that
explore students’ God-given
talents. Learning is led by
passionate, skilled, & adaptive
teachers advancing student
success by using both
qualitative and quantitative
assessment tools.
Biblical
Worldview
Students learn the story of God
and His reconciliation of man to
Himself through Jesus Christ
and how to live a life that
glorifies God. The Bible is
taught as the accurate, truthful
and unified presentation of
God’s relationship with His
people, critical in instruction &
woven throughout all subject
areas. The Bible is used to build
a solid foundation for student
choices and to strengthen
students to stand in adverse
circumstances.

enhance academic

exploration occurs in our after
school programs that include
topics from art to athletics to
language.
