School-wide Expected Student Outcomes

Grace Christian Academy aims to provide quality instruction through the lens of wisdom provided by the Lord in His word.  This instruction takes place in an effort to develop wise students through relationships, instruction, and service. This process begins with an understanding of the truth found in Proverbs 1:2-3, "To know wisdom and instruction, to understand words of insight, to receive instruction in wise dealing, in righteousness, justice, and equity; to give prudence to the simple, knowledge and discretion to the youth." 
 
GCA believes that everything we teach enables the student to gain a greater understanding of God's power and sovereignty in the world.  It is the goal of GCA to teach students the fundamental principles that comprise each subject area from a Christian worldview perspective.  This instruction is performed based on the desire to disciple students to utilize the material that they are taught to serve their communities in a manner that reflects the wisdom, power, and the glory of the Lord.
 
From an organizational perspective, GCA has developed a framework to articulate its school wide expected student outcomes. The mission of Grace is to develop wisdom within students which ultimately becomes the basis for the school wide ESOs. Recognizing that there 

3-Dimensions of the Student

• A One Dimensional Student is one that conducts life according to the agendas of those who have influence in their life. They don’t form their own convictions and, like a chameleon, adopt those of whoever is present at the time. The primary focus of a 1D student is themselves with varying degrees of narcissism. 1D students are often resistant to wisdom and character development because it is hard work and there will always be a negative influence to listen to.
• A Two Dimensional Student is one that follows the rules and does what is right with little understanding of why. The book of Isaiah gives a good summary of a 2D student by saying, “Because this people draw near with their mouth and honor me with their lips, while their hearts are far from me, and their fear of me is a commandment taught by men” Isaiah 29:13. The outward obedience of a 2D student is ultimately manmade leading to discontentment and disregard for the wise principles set forth in scripture.
• A Three Dimensional Student is one whose perspective is far in the future. These students know their calling and live in a way that brings them closer to their purpose. 3D students are able to filter the influences that are pouring into their life; ignoring many and incorporating others. 3D students form and live by a strong set of convictions that guide their decisions and actions. The primary focus of a 3D student is beyond themselves and often includes the development and improvement of others. These students are humble, teachable, and willing to do what it takes to get better; the embodiment of wisdom. 

​Three Dimensional Student

• Has a perspective in the future
• Students know their calling/purpose and live in a way that helps them develop
• Are able to filter influences
• Live by a strong set of convictions that guide their decisions and actions
• Look to develop and improve others
• Students are humble, and willing to do what it takes to get better
