I loved my 4 years at GCS. The teachers there are amazing and they want every student to succeed. They put in as much effort as they can to make no student is left behind or forgotten about. They also make sure the parents are happy with how their child is being taught by the teachers. GCS is probably the best Christian school in the United States. It is very small and doesn't cost a lot, so you get personal attention and you don't have to worry about any hallway cluster.

This used to be a great school until their focus shifted from a Christian School to a private school only worried about the financial bottom line.
