Both of our children went through the preppie k program. They adored their teacher, and our family was so sad to hear that she was leaving last year. They still talk about her often, and the many lessons they learned while in her class. We have decided to pull our children out of Grace however, because

While it appears that there are many new and exciting changes coming down the pipe, I am afraid that this new school year will not be all that parents expect. There seems to be a cloud over the school, and I'm afraid that many teachers will suffer under this new leadership. The teachers are outstanding and have worked together to make Grace a great school. Their efforts however, are being thwarted by dishonesty and 'control' issues tricking down from the top. The aides hours have been cut too!!! Read less

We like having our kids at Grace--mainly for the loving teachers. We feel that our kids are cared for and valued. The Kindergarten program could use more academics and so far I would not recommend the preppie K program. The old teacher, however, is leaving so this may change. So far, the academics

He is improving the writing and the overall academic standards, as well as bringing the school up-to-date on technology. I think the school will become an academically excellent school in the near future. Most of the parents are working/ commuting parents so it can be a little challenging to befriend them. Some parents are very fundamental in their beliefs, but more accepting and loving people are around as well. Read less

Grace Christian has the most caring dedicated teachers I have ever seen. We had two children at Grace who moved to public school in middle school.

The school is great. They really focus on the child as a whole rather than on education only. Mr. Coburn and the teachers are very easy to speak with regarding any problems or concerns that may arise. Too bad it has to be associated with Sea Coast Grace Church which seems to be against actually reaching

I found that most if not all teachers here were sincere in their concern for helping to educate my children. The principal, Mr. Coburn, tries his best to accomodate family needs with the support of his office staff. The child care was only adequate with personnel issues that I feel could have been better
