The Grandville Christian School curriculum includes
the core areas of Bible, math, language arts, social studies and
science. Non-core areas of study included in the curriculum are
art, music, technology, physical education, and Spanish. Instructional
lessons in the subject areas follow a carefully crafted sequential
academic plan. All studies are taught from a Christian perspective.
Woven into the day-to-day academic fabric of Grandville
Christian School, are the principles and practices of Schools Attuned
to All Kinds of Minds, a philosophy of educational care crafted
to meet the needs of a diverse population of learners. GCS exhibits
an unwavering commitment to manage the hearts and minds of all students,
recognizing each child as a unique creation of almighty God. To
treat everyone the same is to treat them unequally, so instruction
is differentiated in the general classrooms. The school also offers
educational support services for students with exceptional strengths
and/or weaknesses in specific skill or content areas.
A cross-cultural partnership with the Reverend Murupus
Academy in Kapenguria, Kenya is another key component that permeates
the educational program at Grandville Christian School. Students
and staff from each school are partnered with each other to collaborate
in learning. The two school communities are learning that Christ’s
Kingdom extends across a big, big world as we build global understanding
and cultivate relationships literally halfway across the globe.
Our goal is that students come to know God and understand
his world.
