Love it. Planned on putting my child here for kindergarten but he/we loved it so much we kept him there. Great school and caring staff.i do not have any complaints at all
Dis skhool is the best skhool around! thee teachers love us, but me teacher last uear didnt like me
Our daughter who was in lower elementary had a great experience overall at this school. Our son had a different experience, also in lower elementary. His teacher not only made derogatory statements to him on multiple occasions in class but wouldn't let him rotate desks like every other student did. Instead, she sat him in a corner away from the rest of the class. I would have thought all was going well because I didn't learn this from my son, but his class mates told me. When I brought in the principal, she told me this teacher was having a hard time in her personal life and took no action to stop it. His behavior scores were always the highest and he had no record of disciplinary issues so I think he bore the brunt of her dissatisfaction with her personal life.
love it! The teacher realy care about us!
We have two children enrolled at GCA, and couldn't be happier. The teachers are excellent, the environment of the entire school is great. I could not be more pleased with the decision to send our children to GCA. They are growing, we are thrilled about the new gym, we want to tell all of our friends about GCA, because they are doing a great job!!! More people should think about checking them out!
My daughter had been in public school from K to 3rd grade and was not academically challenged, and the school we last attended had little in the way of addressing bullies and behavior issues. We homeschooled from 4th to 7th and loved it. My daughter is now attending GAC and absolutely loving every aspect of it. The curriculum is challenging and is college-prep which is super. She loves the caring teachers and staff and has many friends among well-behaved, students who are at school to learn. We've experienced all educational models and Christ was the missing element -- GCA is our educational home -- we love it as a family!
Excellent teachers, Christ focused, and academically challenging.
After sending my daughter to a private school, then a public school and now back to a private school, I could not be happier with the decision to enroll her at GCA. Public School is not preparatory for the real world, it is a different world all in its own. GCA has provided a solid foundation for my daughter to succeed in life, not excuses for mediocrity as 'some' public schools do. I believe this is the best kept secret on the Southside of Indianapolis.
My oldest daughter attended a local public school and although we liked the school, we just weren't getting what we needed. We turned to GCA and now have another child attending there and another one soon to follow! We love it and so do the kids :O) It was exactly what we needed!
I have one child who graduated from GCA and two more who still attend. This school is warm and nurturing and very supportive. The teachers are amazing and Christ is very present in every classroom. The academics are very strong. My kids also came from public schools and were a bit behind, but the teachers know just how to get the public school kids caught up without making them feel bad. The only criticism I have is that there is more guidance needed for seniors as far as preparation for and applying to colleges, taking SAT & ACT and getting scholarship information. Overall, I don't believe that you will find a better Christian education in the area. If you want someone to fix your problem child, this may not be for you, but if you want a decent, loving Christian education that will produce a college-ready student, GCA is the place.
