Grace Christian School

I am a public school teacher myself– teacher & staff at Grace do an exceptional job. My daughter & son both LOVE their school & teachers!
Our family has had a wonderful experience being apart of this «family»!!
I would highly recommend this school program to anyone considering a private Christian school…
Well worth the tuition spent! We have been there for 4 years & have only had amazing experiences!

We chose Grace Christian School initially because we weren’t crazy about the public elementary school we were assigned to. We decided to seek a private school. I originally had my heart set on another private school, but went to check GCS just to appease a relative. Honestly, I was LOOKING for something to NOT like because I wanted to have my argument ready for why «my» school was better than GCS. But I could not find anything to dislike about the school. The ladies in the front office and the director of enrollment are so incredibly nice and helpful. The classrooms were amazing, the computer lab blew me away. It did not take long for us to decide this would be our school.
My daughter has been there for about a month now, and I am continually impressed with the school, the campus, and the staff. The entire staff loves and cares for these kids SO much, and makes them their absolute top priority. (I’m blown away by how many different staff members know who my Kindergartener is! When I was in Kindergarten, only 1 teacher knew who I was!)
The principal, Dr. Pettinger is very personable and is always very visible and interactive with the kids and parents. Also, he is obsessed with making sure that the school is safe and well prepared for any emergencies. His kids are all grown and work in law enforcement. Several of the students here have parents who work in law enforcement. (They joke that they have more law enforcement personnel than Cypress Police Department!) The teachers are trained in CPR, First Aid, AED, and are (or are working on being) 100% CERT certified (Community Emergency Response Team). They are SO prepared for the El Niño season we are expecting. Other schools are asking to see their notes so they can strive to be just as prepared! I can rest assured if an earthquake or El Niño hits while my daughter is at school, she will be well taken care of… probably more so than we are at the house!
If you choose Grace Christian School (and are lucky enough that they have room!), I promise you will not be disappointed. Check their website… it’s very well done. They keep parents very well informed both by weekly emailed newsletters as well as flyers that come home with my child. There is so much genuine warmth and heart at this school too. It breaks my heart that we are scheduled to eventually move out of the area and won’t be able to keep her here through 8^th grade.
