My daughter's teachers are amazing. Not only are her math and reading abilities far above that of her peers at public school, but her love of Jesus has grown exponentially. I have seen her teachers give generously of their time when students were struggling. They are very welcoming to parents and my husband has enjoyed being a Watchdog twice in my daughters room.

Nothing but good things to say about this school! From the management to the teachers, they all went above and beyond for our 3 daughters. We had 11 great years with them, they treated our kids like family and they will forever be in our hearts! Thank you GCA!
