CURRICULUM

PRE-K through 6th Grade
GSLC uses the A Beka curriculum  for its classroom teaching strategies in classes Pre-K 3 through 6th grade. Abeka is recognized nationwide as a leader in Christian Education and has been in existence for many years. You may learn more by clicking on the link above. The official ABeka site will open in another browser.

Infants -Young 3's
GSLC uses the Pinnacle Christian curriculum for children ages 6 weeks-3 years old. Pinnacle focuses on key Bible concepts chosen especially to bring God's Word to a preschooler's world and to help each child begin to build a spiritual foundation that will last a lifetime. Each Bible concept is packed with a range of creative learning centers such as art, blocks, dramatic play, large motor games and science.

BEFORE & AFTER SCHOOL CARE
Parents can feel comfortable leaving their children with us in the morning where we will provide them a freshly prepared breakfast.  In-house before and after school care is provided for a fee.  We serve the children healthy snacks, offer homework assistance and other fun activities for them.

VISION
Our vision is to continue adding grade level classes until we have completed our goal of educating children from infancy through 12th grade. This vision will be fulfilled by parents and students from our local community who strive to obtain a quality, Christian education.
