Grace Christian School was founded in 1980 based on the conviction that children from Christian families should receive an education rooted in the Christian worldview. From our modest beginning of seven students meeting in a parent’s home, to our current enrollment of 320 students and grades ranging from pre-kindergarten through 12th, each level continues to stress Christian virtues and academic excellence. We currently serve 200 families from a three-county radius, representing over 70 Christian churches. Grace Christian School is accredited by the Southern Association of Independent Schools (SAIS) and the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools (SACS), as well as a long-standing member of the Association of Christian Schools International (ACSI).

Our first graduating class consisted of five students in 1992. Since then, our 333 alumni have gone on to secular or Christian colleges, entered the work force, become homemakers, or gone to mission fields.

God has provided three separate facilities for this ministry. The elementary and middle school meets in the Statler Complex (once owned by the Statler Brothers country music group) at 511 Thornrose Avenue. The high school campus is located in the former Staunton Public Library at 19 South Market Street. The GCS Activities Center, located at 1220 Middlebrook Ave., provides our students with a home for physical education classes, inside sporting events, school programs, and other special events.
