School Notes

  • Glasgow Christian Academy is a Christian Home School Cooperative located in Bear, Delaware offering a la carte classes.
  • GCA exists to partner with families in providing students with a quality, Christian education at home.
  • Our main desire is to instill in young people a deep love for Jesus and His Word which equips them to "make disciples" in response to the Great Commission (Matthew 28:19). We seek to give God our best, not only spiritually, but with academic excellence. We offer a diploma program which provides encouragement and accountability through portfolio reviews with experienced homeschooling educators, grades, transcripts, competitive sports teams, and a diploma upon graduation. Enrollment in the diploma program is not required to enroll in classes. The well-rounded GCA experience includes weekly core subject and extra-curricular classes, mercy ministry projects, social activities, a yearbook, student council, school newspaper, honor society, spirit days, field trips, an annual Student Showcase, and much more!
