Teachers are wonderful but the principal is really bad, you never see her and when you try to contact her either by phone, e-mail or in person she is never available. Upper grades are very small in fact too small for a child to have proper social development. There are better schools in the area. Close Quote

I have been a GCA parent for 5 years now. We are very happy with the education and character development our son is receiving. Each year we have seen tremendous growth in him academically, spiritually and socially. The class sizes we have experienced enabled our son to receive the right amount of attention and interaction with teachers and support personnel. The teachers at GCA truly love the Lord and love our students. Through the volunteer work I do at the school, I have formed treasured friendships with many other parents. We look forward to another year at GCA! Close Quote

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
