Teaching Approach

Updated 8mo ago

Grace Brethren Christian School describes a Christ-centered approach that emphasizes academic excellence while giving students opportunities for salvation and discipleship and forming a Biblical worldview for life. Their core values stress that Scripture is taught as truth, Bible is a core subject, and faith-and-learning integration is intentionally maintained across all academic disciplines and learning experiences.

Admissions

Updated 8mo ago

Families can start by submitting an online inquiry form (and optionally continue directly to the application) or by applying online through the school’s FACTS/RenWeb portal; new applications include a non-refundable $250 fee and parents can track application status online after submission. (cgcseagles.org) Key requirements include meeting age cutoffs (e.g., K3–1st grade ages must be met by September 1), completing interviews for parents and students, and completing entrance testing (reading/language/math) with stated percentile benchmarks for regular vs. probationary acceptance; immunization/physical records (and lead screening for K4–1st) are also required. (cgcseagles.org) For timing, mid-year entry for the 2nd or 3rd grading period requires the application and registration fee two weeks before the end of the prior quarter, with testing two weeks prior; the school also offers open houses (listed as 8:45–10:00 AM, with a note that if PG County schools were delayed/closed on January 27 the next open house would be February 10). (cgcseagles.org) Priority is given to Christian students from Christian homes (space permitting, students from non-Christian homes may be admitted if parents fully support the school’s philosophy), and teachers/staff applying for their first child are treated as a “school family” for priority purposes. (cgcseagles.org) If a grade is full, the school creates a waiting pool; waitlist consideration is based on factors such as sibling placement (in a grade without a waiting pool), report cards, recommendation letters, and standardized test scores, and the re-enrollment page notes a waitlist form for 2025–2026 is “coming soon.” (cgcseagles.org)
