We, as a team, are working diligently to support student growth in understanding, and walking forward in this world with a biblical perspective on all that is happening around us. In all ways we are co-laboring with parents to support them in our mission for Christ; we utilize a "What A GGCA Student is..." model to guide our daily rigorous instruction, weekly outreaches, and outside-the-classroom extracurricular activities. Check out our website, www.ggca.org, and see what we're all about!

I am a parent of three graduates of Greater Grace Christian Academy and I highly recommend this school. It is my privilege to report that each of these graduates have grown into responsible professionals in their own fields of interest. The biblical and academic foundations laid at GGCA set each of them up with a clear vision for their futures, as they serve Christ and their respective spheres of influence in their communities. Our oldest daughter became a Registered Nurse with a specialty in pediatrics and served in Baltimore for almost 10 years. At present, she and her husband are missionaries in Malawi, Africa, sharing the gospel, ministering to people, and living as ambassadors of Christ in one of the poorest countries in the world. Our second daughter became a nationally certified teacher who has taught at a prestigious private school in MD for dyslexic students and is currently a math specialist who tutors students while raising her family. Our son serves and protects the community as a Maryland State Trooper and member of the MD State SWAT team. I am extremely grateful for the education they received at GGCA and the investment of every teacher who: lifted up the Word of God, led by example, and inspired them to lead lives beyond the ordinary to the glory of God.

As a high schooler I went to this school and enjoyed my education there. Now I send all four of my children there and they love it. The teacher/student ratio is great and there's always someone willing to reach out to my children.

If you are looking for a school that offers great academics, Godly, caring, loving and nurturing teachers and a safe campus, then this is the school for your child. My daughter has been in this school since Kindergarten and even went to their nursery before K5 and now is a 3rd grader heading to 4th grade next year. All of her teachers have been top notch educators and I know the rest of them will be as well. It is a small facility but that is the beauty of it. The classes are small enough that each child gets what they need in class and the teachers are very willing to communicate with you. Their extracurricular activities are great! Music, art, sports programs are all run by caring teachers who are willing to teach and challenge kids to do their best. To top it all off, this is a Bible based school and God is brought into the classrooms freely and regularly. There are Bible Classes for older kids and chapel services for all grades. The principal and his support staff are the best!!! GGCA is warm and welcoming and I recommend it to anyone.
