Kindergarten Welcome

 

Welcome to Kindergarten at the Academy

It is our mission to provide a sound, biblically-based education that will shape your child in every way - spitiually, socially, phyically, and mentally. Like the young heroes in the Bible, Daniel, Joseph, and Esther - each was equipped to understand their times and to be prepared to influence their culture. To be academically equipped, GCA invests time and energy equipping each student with the basic skills necessry to be a vital member of their community. Kindergarten is the place where those foundational building blocks are laid for the learning journey that will continue for a lifetime.

We are always eager to accept students who are prepared for the joy of learning the basics and beyond, and our kindergarten staff is equipped to prepare each child. Take a few moments to look over the pages on readiness, meet our dtaff, and our admissions process. Feel free to contact us if we can be of any help as you seek the place for your child to begin the learning journey!

Are you looking for a kindergarten environment that provides opportunities for academic excellence, spiritual growth, and a warm, loving atmosphere? Consider what Grace Christian Academy has to offer.

At GCA, kindergarten students are immersed in exceptional, challenging, and age appropriate curriculum. With a strong phonics foundation, students develop solid reading skills early that benefit them in all subjects. Bible is one of the daily subject areas and all lessons are taught from a Christian worldview. Kindergarten students participate in six special area classes per week which serve to enrich the curriculum and encourage the development of the whole child. Those classes include Library, Art, Computer, Spanish, Physical Education, and Music.

Students have the opportunity at Grace to explore their interests and gifts in the area of fine arts. Beginning in kindergarten, students participate in two musical productions each year. They have the opportunity to take violin lessons and later enroll in the Instrumental program.

Grace Christian Academy is accredited by both the Association of Christian Schools International (ACSI) and the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools (SACS). This distinguishes GCA as an exceptional and reputable educational institution. The accreditation process provides an ongoing review of our curriculum, faculty, and extracurriculuar programs.

We invite you to explore the possibilities for your child at Grace Christian Academy. At GCA, we understand the importance of your decision in choosing a school for your child. Our goal is partner with you as parents as we work together in your child’s educational experience. We strive to provide an environment of excellence where children feel safe, loved, and will thrive during their early years of education.
