Grace Classical Academy seeks to prepare students for the future through a strong emphasis on knowing and relying on God, building Godly character and academic rigor.

Psalm 139:13-14 beautifully expresses the intimate involvement of God in the creation of each individual: “For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother’s womb. I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made.” This recognition of God’s craftsmanship serves as a foundation for our individualized approach to character development and academics.

We help you equip your child with not only knowledge and critical thinking skills but also a strong moral compass. This comprehensive preparation ensures that they enter the future with purpose, perseverance and a foundation grounded in academic excellence, Christian virtue and academic variety to equip them to be successful in relationships and any vocation they desire.

God’s purpose for life

We will teach your child about God, His purpose for them which is to love Him above all things, and love others as themselves. The Bible, God’s Word, will be taught which explains God, man, righteousness, and sin and how to be reconciled back into a right relationship with God through His Son Jesus Christ. God wants each of His children’s souls to possess righteousness, peace, and joy, and to depend upon God fully for help all through their life.

Godly virtues in students

The character of every person is a summation of their virtues and vices. Each child will be taught from the Bible and will be encouraged to choose to not have vices in their character but to choose Godly virtues pleasing to God and others. We desire all children to possess love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self control. Each child will be taught diligence in all things including health, diet, and exercising to form good habits for a healthy spiritual and physical life.
