School History
Grace Christian Academy was founded in 1986 as Grace Brethren Christian School, a ministry of Grace Brethren Church. Beginning as a preschool and adding a grade every year, the school graduated its first senior class in 2000. The school received Association of Christian Schools International and Middle States accreditation in 1996 and re-accreditation in 2002 and 2012.
In 2009, Grace Brethren Christian School officially changed its name to Grace Christian Academy of Maryland (GCA). The 17-acre campus has grown continually since 1986, adding new classrooms as needed. There are also two fully-equipped, fenced playgrounds and a lighted regulation-size soccer field. Our handicapped accessible educational building contains two state-of-the-art science labs, an art lab, a gymnasium, an administrative wing, and 13 additional classrooms. Our current enrollment of approximately 400 students in preschool through high school is served by over 75 full and part-time staff members.
