About Growing In Grace Academy

Growing In Grace Academy is a small, Christ-centered Christia school serving students in Kindergarden-5th grade.We are committed to creating a nurturing, academically strong environment where every child is known, valued, and encouraged to flourish.

Through intentionally small class sizes, trusted Christian curriculum, personalized instruction, and meaningful hands-on learning experiences, students are supported at their individual learning levels. We seek to nurture curiosity, build confidence and character, and help children develop a lifelong love of learning while growing in both knowledge and faith.

At Growing In Grace, we believe children were created uniquely and intentionally by God. Education should recognize those differences rather than expecting every child to learn in exactly the same way.

We also believe education is strongest when families and educators work together. Through a meaningful school-family partnership, we support, challenge, and encourage each child as they grow academically, spiritually, socially, and into the person God created them to be.

Our Mission

Our mission is to partner with families to provide a Christ-centered education that develops strong academic foundations, biblical understanding, godly character, and a lifelong love of learning. Through individualized instruction, meaningful relationships, and engaging learning experiences, we seek to nurture each child’s God-given gifts and prepare students to grow with wisdom, confidence, and purpose.

Our Vision

Our vision is to cultivate a Christ-centered learning community where children grow in wisdom, faith, confidence, and compassion. We desire to develop students who think critically, serve faithfully, lead with integrity, and use their God-given gifts to make a positive difference in their families, churches, and communities.

This remains aspirational without implying that you presently graduate students.

Students build confidence and practical skills through shared, hands-on experiences.

Our Community

Growing in Grace Academy is more than a school, it is a community.

Students learn alongside classmates who encourage one another, teachers who truly know them, and families who share a commitment to Christ-centered education. Through field trips, celebrations, service opportunities, and shared learning experiences, children develop meaningful friendships, confidence, responsibility, and a genuine sense of belonging.

We believe

  • The Bible is the inspired and authoritative Word of God and is the foundation for truth and instruction in every area of life.

  • God the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit are one eternal God, working in perfect unity to create, redeem, and sustain all things.

  • Jesus Christ is the Son of God, who lived a sinless life, died on the cross for our sins, and rose again, offering salvation and eternal life to all who believe.

  • The Holy Spirit dwells within believers, guiding, teaching, and empowering them to live out their faith.

  • Salvation is by grace through faith in Jesus Christ alone, not by works.

  • The Church is the body of Christ, called to worship, make disciples, and share the gospel with the world.

  • Children are a gift from the Lord and are to be nurtured in faith, love, and truth as they grow to know and follow Him.
