Individual Emphasis
Achievement and ability focused
Students placed in classes that will challenge them regardless of age/grade.
Small class sizes
Mixed aged groupings provides dynamic perspectives in the classrooms
Core academic classes have a maximum capacity of twelve students and elective courses have a maximum capacity of sixteen students.
Time at home/tutorial allows for individual attention and pacing
Optimally Delivered
At each point, students will be pressed to achieve and instruction will emphasize the joy of learning for a lifetime. Students may attend GCA for one class, a few classes, or 1-3 days worth of direct instruction. The remaining time at home will allow students to work independently on assigned projects, pursue individual interests, attend activities to bring learning to life, master difficult concepts, and/or have increased time for learning with family.
