Board of Trustees

Grace Christian Academy is overseen by a Board of Trustees. The current Board consists entirely of members who served on the development committee and are legally named as trustees for Grace Christian Academy. Overtime, the board will transition to individuals who have a vested interest in Grace Christian Academy (i.e., parents, grandparents, former teachers). The Board of Trustees’ primary duties include:

• Preserving and supporting the school’s mission, founding principles, and statement of faith

• Establishing and evaluating the Board, school governance, and management policies (i.e., handbook, general institutional policies)

• Strategically planning for the school’s future development

• Hiring, equipping, evaluating and supporting the head of school/director/principal in carrying out the mission of GCA

• Hiring, equipping, evaluating and supporting the business administrator who oversees the day to day needs of payroll and tuition

• Managing the business, budgetary, and legal obligations

• Assessing all teacher and curriculum decisions made by the head of school/director/principal
