Greater Grace Christian Academy

What Greater Grace Christian Academy does

Greater Grace Christian Academy (GGCA) is a private, church-affiliated K-12 Christian school located in Baltimore, Maryland, operating as a ministry of Greater Grace World Outreach (GGWO) and Greater Grace Church. The school offers a college preparatory curriculum integrated with daily systematic Bible teaching, Christian service opportunities, interscholastic athletics for grades 5-12 (as a member of the Maryland Independent Athletic Conference), a band program for grades 4-12, and Title 1 support for eligible families. Enrollment is gated by church attendance documentation, with the school drawing primarily from Greater Grace Church families and select neighboring churches, supplemented by an International Student Program for grades 7-12 delivered through homestay organization partnerships and supported by F-1 visa sponsorship and ESL instruction.

GGCA's core technology footprint is minimal and administrative in nature, centered on JupiterEd for grade management and student records, supplemented by instructional technology components such as typing mastery, STEM projects, and internet safety modules for middle school students, with a Microsoft Office Specialist certification requirement for high school graduates. Curriculum is built on standard Christian school publishers including BJU Press, Zaner-Bloser Superkids, Houghton Mifflin Harcourt Into Math, and Institute for Excellence in Writing. The school operates additional community-facing programs including a Learning Center for ages 2-4, Greater Grace Youth Athletics instructional league, and before/after care services, all of which extend the ministry ecosystem vertically.

Revenue is generated almost entirely from recurring tuition streams, with 2026-27 domestic tuition ranging from $8,407 (Kindergarten) to $9,545 (high school) per student, and international tuition priced at $15,370-$16,080 per student. Ancillary revenue streams include registration fees ($155-$235 per family), re-enrollment fees, activities deposits ($395 for grades 5-12), athletic participation fees, band and choir fees, and before/after care contracts ($355-$1,550). Payment is processed through FACTS monthly plans with a 10-month structure, and no public financial disclosures, funding rounds, or investor ownership are reported; the school operates as a nonprofit ministry under church governance.
