MAP Test Scores

In 2020-21, 80% of our students scored above the national average for math, reading, and language. More than 20% scored in the 90th percentile or higher.

Small Class Sizes

Our small classes allow our teachers to get to know and work with each student, while also providing opportunities for individualized instruction.

Committed to Diversity

Our school serves a diverse body of students across neighborhoods, cultures, races, income levels, and religious backgrounds.

Even though we live in a highly regarded public school district, we have never regretted the money we give to send our kids to Grace. My husband and I are both teachers ourselves and can’t say enough about having our kids in an environment that is small enough to individualize instruction, tend to their spiritual selves, and encourage their participation in everything from basketball to handbells. I can’t say enough about the top-notch teachers who set high standards while also loving our kids fiercely.

My experience with this school has been wonderful. There is a great sense of community at Grace. Everyone is very involved and treats each other great, it’s a like a family. My child loves going to Grace. There is a lot of attention placed on each child by the teachers. I like that the classrooms are not over populated and there is one-on-one attention given if needed. My child is thriving here at Grace and it makes us happy. I would definitely recommend this school.
