Academics at GCCS

At the core of our teaching: to nurture, educate and inspire 

JK to Grade 8

Academics Overview

The educational quality our students receive exceeds that offered at most local schools due especially to the experience and expertise of our teachers, the additional support offered by our educational assistants, and our small class sizes.

We offer a comprehensive program beginning with Junior Kindergarten and ending with Grade 8 graduation which meets or exceeds provincial expectations.

Conversations with local secondary schools and alumni surveys indicate that our students are well prepared to not only meet the expectations of high school but in most cases to exceed them.  Regardless of which high school they attend, our students experience the same high degree of success they enjoyed at the elementary level. Many of our students qualify for their school's Honour Roll as their academic abilities and good work ethic are celebrated.

We also are able to measure the quality and effectiveness of our curriculum and instruction through our use of assessments called Measures of Academic Progress® (MAP®).  Each year, our results consistently show that our students and classes are outperforming the norms as well as the average scores of other participating schools.

While we fulfill the technical academic standards of the province, our value system is through the lens of Christian living and the Bible. This difference is most noticeable in the presence of a Bible program at each grade level. The Bible is a guide for all of our programs as we seek to understand how all areas of human endeavour have been marked by the Fall, and will be restored by our Lord, and how we can serve Him by practicing restoration today.
