Lower School
Where your child develops the mindset for future learning and success
In lower school (K5 through 2nd grade classes), your child takes their first steps into a more structured learning environment that includes language arts, math, science, and social studies. It is in this stage where they must have positive learning experiences and develop a curious mind to succeed in the future.
At Grace Christian School, your child will enjoy learning by using creativity and self-expression to engage with their education and peers. Our activities are based on core subjects for strong academic foundations, as well as curiosity, self-sufficiency, and Christian values.
Through interdisciplinary projects, sharing activities, and games, your child will begin to develop social, emotional, and physical skills, like cooperation, problem-solving, and respect for others and their ideas.
They will be supported by our highly trained, passionate teachers, and enjoy our modern classrooms, beautiful campus, and world-class sporting/play equipment.
Your child will develop and cherish memories, knowledge, skills, and friendships that will last a lifetime.
Elementary School
Connect your child with holistic learning, inspiring teachers, and God
In their 3rd, 4th, and 5th grades at Grace Christian School, students expand upon the foundations they’ve built to continue developing their abilities and relationship with God.
Your child will grow and thrive through a variety of learning and spiritual activities, like group projects, hands-on science experiments, church service, and technology-based learning.
Elementary students attend the Technology Lab once a week for instruction, including keyboarding skills, computer science, digital communication, and more. These real-world applications make learning more relevant and exciting.
This all takes place under the strong leadership of our administrators and teachers, who have close relationships with the students. Our teachers know how to motivate and engage your child through interactive lessons, and have a strong understanding of all core subjects, such as math, reading, and science.
We hold high expectations for our teachers to deliver their best performance. Our teachers also hold high expectations for their students, to help your child become a benevolent, hardworking leader of tomorrow.
