I wanted to come in as a parent of two GCA graduates. GCA has always been not only a place of learning and growing academically but also spiritually. GCA quickly became a family to us. The teachers and staff prayed with my daughters, held them and uplifted them at the low times in their life. They were also there to praise them and congratulate them in the happy times. I will forever be grateful to our GCA family.
