About Grace Community School in Delaware, Ohio

Mission Statement

Grace Community School (GCS) is an interdenominational community school that educates children through a Christian philosophy of education.

GCS recognizes that God through his Word, the Bible, is the absolute authority and basis for all truth. Under that authority we desire to work with the local church, the evangelical community and others who support our basic mission.

With the Christian community we seek to assist Christian families in their Biblical responsibility to train their children to become Christ-like and to fulfill God’s purpose for their lives in the home church and society.

Why Grace Community School?

We at Grace Community focus on the child’s heart and help each student reach his or her greatest potential as designed by their Creator. We address the academic, social, spiritual, emotional, and physical needs of each child with a Bible-based program.

We offer a college preparatory curriculum that is distinctly Christian regarding the philosophy of education.

Established in 2006, Grace Community School is an Open Enrollment School (according to guidelines) and operates as an Ohio Chartered Nonpublic school.

We offer a college preparatory curriculum that is distinctly Christian in regard to the philosophy of education. We do not utilize a common core curriculum. Our curriculum is private and advanced as compared to public schools. On comparison we are at least one year beyond the public-school regarding academics.

All elementary grades offer a high-quality curriculum based upon the basics of reading, language arts, and math. Our middle school academics offer advanced studies of mathematics, science, grammar, literature, and historical studies.
Kindergarten students learn phonics and start to read by the middle of the school year. By the end of the school year they are advanced readers as compared to the public school. We also start cursive writing, the study of simple addition and subtraction, time, and money.
Our teaching philosophy is based on the fact “All students are unique and have different learning styles.”
Our elementary and middle school teachers are loving, kind, passionate, knowledgeable, have college degrees and are licensed by the State of Ohio.
Our school is located on 4.5 acres within the city. Students love to walk on field trips, play on two different playgrounds and enjoy the green space.
