Grades 9 - 12
Academics
At GCA High School, we emphasize excellence and rigor. High school students can expect high standards and challenging academics covering a variety of subjects and learning styles, including AP and dual credit offerings. As they advance from freshman to senior year, students receive personalized college and career advice from our guidance department to help them reach their full potential and answer God's call on their lives. Our staff continues to invest individually in students, serving as mentors and advocates. We strive for our graduates to be lifelong learners, loving to their neighbors, active in their communities, persevering in their struggles, joyful in their service, selfless in their relationships, and committed to their faith in Christ.
BIBLE
We aspire to equip students with academic, social, emotional, and spiritual support. High school students at GCA participate in traditional Bible classes, along with chapel and devotions. They also have the opportunity to play in the chapel band. That said, biblical permeation extends beyond those activities. At GCA, we establish an environment that fosters growth in godliness. Our teachers are transparent about their faith and allow open space for conversation with their students. We seek to encourage students in their walk with God. As they enter the next steps of their lives, our goal is to see them flourish!
house system
High School Cougar Dens are grouped into four Houses — Red, Green, Yellow, and Purple. Students can earn house points by displaying GCA’s core values, going out of their way to serve, or by participating in culture-building activities. Houses collect points throughout the school year and the winning group is rewarded with an end-of-the-year celebration.
Meet the Principal
Angelique Randall joined the GCA family in 2016 and has more than 25 years of experience in Christian education. She received her undergraduate degree in Elementary Education from Indiana University, her master’s degree in Curriculum and Instruction from Indiana Wesleyan, and her Principal License in Educational Leadership from Indiana Wesleyan as well. In addition, she holds a P-12 Building Administrator’s license from the state of Indiana and an Administrator's Certificate with ACSI. Her desire to encourage and inspire every member of the GCA family is evident through her outlook on Christian education. She notes, “Christian education aims to transform the spiritual lives of our students while helping them become articulate, critical thinkers and lifelong learners. Additionally, GCA's goal is to prepare our students to think Christ-centered, understanding the true nature of God so that they become responsible citizens who transform the world around them for the glory of His Kingdom."
