Academics
Our school helps students grow through challenging classes. We teach from a biblical worldview to move students toward knowledge and wisdom.
Our Motto
Educating for Life; Impacting for Eternity. This integration of faith and learning enables students to learn to think from a biblical worldview. We are dedicated to providing students with an excellent education to prepare them for the opportunities God has set before them. Students are equipped and encouraged to think critically and creatively as they prepare for the next grade.
Students develop a biblical worldview to filter their ideas, thoughts, and actions. They are also challenged academically with opportunities to develop their unique God-given abilities, gifts, and talents.
Kindergarten
Our youngest students are taught in a loving and safe environment where learning is fun and engaging. Children learn basic skills and concepts in reading, writing, math, science and social studies. They are exposed to many enrichment activities as well including music, art, technology, physical education, library, Spanish, and STEM.
Elementary
The faculty and staff in our elementary school work diligently to prepare each child for the next level of their education in a biblically and academically rich environment. Each student is known and valued. Our goal is to develop students who are challenged, prepared, affirmed, and encouraged.
Junior High
Grace Academy trains young people so that they are able to succeed in the area of God’s calling.
High School
Grace Academy impacts students by moving them toward knowledge and wisdom: educating from a biblical worldview for this life; evangelizing and equipping for eternal life. Spiritual Development represents half of our mission and includes character as well as behavior. Students are challenged to follow Christ and become like Him.
Enrichment Classes
All students in grade Kindergarten through 6th grade have classes in library, art, music, technology, PE, Spanish, and STEM. These classes are taught by specialists. Students in 4th-6th grade have the opportunity to participate in the Academics choir where they have the opportunity to receive vocal ad choral training. We also have opportunities to play in our afterschool band beginning in 5th grade with private lessons from our band teacher. For upper elementary students, there are also possibilities to participate in sports such as soccer in the fall, basketball in the winter, and track in the spring.

College/Career Planning
The College Level Examination Program (CLEP) offers a way to earn college credit based on what a person already knows. The clever thing is that these credits are earned at a fraction of the cost of taking a college course.
Library
Books and materials in the Library/Media Center have been screened according to the philosophy outlined in “Guidelines for Choosing Books,” available at the library circulation desk.
Secondary Courses
First semester students will be using a text entitled “Wise Up.” The class will examine how to better deal with some of the problems and situations that touch Christian children, such as making good friends, how to treat parents, and responsibility at home.

Melissa George
Current Parent“Grace Academy has been a HUGE blessing for our family!! The quality of academic education coupled with a full complement of extracurricular activities has given us an incredible experience. While these 2 things have contributed to the success of our kids, what has been the most impactful is the relationship they have developed with Jesus and how the teachers genuinely love and care for each student. Grace Academy’s motto is ‘Educating for Life / Impacting for Eternity’ and as a family that has been here for 13 years – we have seen this, felt this, and most importantly, lived this. We could not imagine our kids anywhere else and thank God every day for allowing us to be a part of the Grace Academy family!!”
