Our Staff.
The staff at Grace Christian School is small, but we're passionate about preparing the next generation not only with a solid educational foundation but also with a biblical worldview that will help them impact their world for Christ. All instructors are degreed and certified as teachers through a recognized accrediting agency or the state of Florida.
