Parents - We invite you to a meet and greet with our Accreditation Team...
As you may know, Grace Christian School is part of the Western Association of Accredited Schools and Colleges as well as National Lutheran School Accreditation. As part of the accreditation process, we are visited routinely, every few years, by a team from WASC. We are making final preparations for our school accreditation visit start on April 22nd. We will have two teams here, one for preschool and one for K-8th. We have been collecting data, (school surveys last year), had focus groups, and the teachers have been working diligently for the past year on preparing a very thorough report. If you would like to review our report please click on this LINK. We would like to invite you to a meet and greet with the Accreditation Team on Sunday April 22nd at 5:00pm in the gym. This is a time that that the team will start to get to know our school from meeting with parents, church members, and other stakeholders of the school.
