My child has attended Grace this year. After a very trying year last year, it was refreshing to be in an environment that actively gives God the glory for the work done in this ministry. My child has been to two other private schools. Here at Grace, she received personal attention. The teachers have taken the time to help her succeed. Although things have to be adjusted often due to the "new normal," the principal keeps us well informed and is very accommodating to the families. She also teaches a few classes and has been a wonderful mentor to my daughter. She has her degree in educational psychology, is a certified medical assistant, and has twenty-three years of experience in education. Some of the other reviews are clearly wrong. I will say that Grace is not very large. That is just what my daughter needed. There are not very many distractions. The kids do not get away with not doing work. The parents also are expected to be supportive of the Grace team and rightly so. We are very happy at Grace.

It is where God has us! That’s an exciting place to be. There is not a lot of flair, but God’s presence is bright! Reading some of the other comments is interesting. It is not common to find a place where the students are held to a high standard of personal accountability anymore. Most parents can’t stomach it. The atmosphere is small which makes it easy to weed out the bad seeds. I’m so thankful that God led us here. We’ve been here for 10 years! I’ve had 2 graduate. One is a nurse at hospital, and the second will be graduating with a business degree from UF in the spring. Both graduated with 18 and 21 college credits due to their dual enrollment opportunities. Only one more to go! Go GCA!!

Although the school might work for some, it did not work for us. It was the worst school year for them. My kids kept getting sick, crying, bullied, and getting hurt. My kids changed after that and they will never be the same. I agree with the community member who posted comments on June 3, 2017. The school location has moved to 4405 E Colonial Dr Orlando, FL 32803 to 5401 Curry Ford Rd, Orlando, FL 32812

This is our second year at Grace Christian academy, both of our daughters are doing much better than they did in a big school. They are not only excelling in academics, but they are learning about God and how to be more responsible and great members of the society. I feel very safe as week, everyone knows each other, there's a definite sense of community. Mr and Mrs Rice go above and beyond to help all of the kids succeed.

This school was an answered prayer for our family! My kids are excited to go to school, and my little one misses it on the weekends. The one on one learning environment is unlike any other school we've encountered. Extra curriculars are also available and give all the kids a chance to participate. The teachers are amazing and I always know what's going on with my kids both academically and socially. I cannot imagine another place is want my kids to be!

We love GCA!! Mr Rice and Mrs Rice are the best teachers. But they are not only teachers, they wear many hats. They do so much for their students. My kids have never been happier

So far it's been a very positive experience. The teachers are great and helping my child succeed and plan not just for now but for the future.

My children are taught personal responsibility and respect. The small class size provides effective one on one attention. In addition to the onsite teachers, the high school students have access to many electives offered online. The high school students are encouraged to dual enroll. As a junior in HS, my child will finish this school year with twelve college credits. I am so thankful for the opportunities my children have at Grace!
